MAISON MARGIELA PRESENTS FW26 IN SHANGHAI WITH A HIGH-CONTRAST INDUSTRIAL RUNWAY

Maison Margiela brought its Fall/Winter 2026 collection to Shanghai with a runway set built among industrial containers, creating a raw, port-inspired environment.

The presentation brought together ready-to-wear and Artisanal pieces within a single narrative, defined by a high level of craftsmanship: intricate embroidery, surface treatments, and collage-like constructions.

Masks —a signature element of the house— reinforced the show’s conceptual dimension through complex structures that blurred the models’ identities and heightened its performative quality.

More than a presentation, the contrast between the industrial setting and the intricacy of the garments defined the visual language of the show.
