Continuing my #appreciation of #alternative #fashionshows ... #SS21 by #maisonmargiela - these stunning #photographs by #brittlloyd and the accompanying #video by #showstudio (take a look on their insta page) are great approaches to a non-show...I’m finding these much more interesting than a conventional #catwalk #show . #fashion #fashioncollection #fashionphotography #fabric #colour #outfit #look
