Maison Martin Margiela For H&M Presentation Party

ENG: Last night I spent with Maison Martin Margiela. To be specific - with his collaboration with H&M. The event took place at a closed-door cocktail party on the eve of official sale start. With several parcels of absolute must-have – the most liveliest impressions and photo-shots of night shopping life.
RU: Позапрошлую ночью я провела с Maison Martin Margiela. Если быть точнее, с его коллаборацией для H&M. Действо происходило на закрытом коктейле накануне старта официальных продаж коллекции. Вместе с несколькими пакетами абсолютных must-have - самые яркие впечатления и кадры из жизни ночного шоппинга.

11pm. 10 hours left till the official sale starts if wristwatch and Moscow time is true. The endless queue lined up to the doors of central H&M store in Shopping Center “Metropolis”. While I am trying to whip up entrains, several young people appear in front of me. “What`s going on? The shop is closed already!” – the young one asks me squeezing a fat chicken stick from fast food KFC.
Одиннадцать вечера. До официального старта продаж остается 10 часов, если верить наручным часам и московскому времени. К дверям центрального магазина H&M в ТЦ "Метрополис" выстроилась бесконечная очередь. Пока пытаюсь сообразить, что к чему, передо мной возникает компания молодых ребят. "А что здесь происходит? Магазин же закрылся уже!" - озадачивает меня тот, что сжимает в руке сальную куриную ножку из соседней фастфудной лавочки KFC.

French smartness of Maison Martin Margiela doesn`t lose face even in the face of such a concentrated refined dialogue. All those who is far from fashion in favour of other interests, cannot understand why MMM generates lots of unprecedented buzz which can be compared perhaps with the queue for cold meats in 90th.
Французский шик Maison Martin Margiela не теряет лицо даже на фоне такого концентрированно-рафинированного монолога. Все те, кто далек от мира моды в пользу других увлечений, в этот вечер так и не поймут, чем MMM заслужил такой небывалый ажиотаж, который сравним разве что с очередью за колбасой в 90-ые.

In half an hour the doors are opened and crowd pierces to precious shelves. And then in few minutes it`s left shining of white emptiness. The main hits of the night are candy clutches and oversized jeans. It's taken in seconds. Happy guests rush to fitting-rooms accompanied by the orchestra taking French éclairs and pineapple fresh juice in process.
Через полчаса двери магазина открываются, и поток людей прорывается к заветным полкам. Уже через несколько минут они остаются сиять белоснежной пустотой. Главными хитами вечера оказываются "конфетные" клатчи и безразмерные джинсы - их сметают мгновенно. Счастливые гости под аккомпанемент живого оркестра устремляются к примерочным, на ходу перехватывая кто французские эклеры, а кто ананасовый фрэш.

At the exit I meet stylist Alexander Rogov, clasping in the hands few hangers with excellent Couture. "Everything fits?" - asks Sasha, and at this moment I am recalled again that he is one of the main fans of Maison Martin Margiela in this huge metropolis. This fact becomes more special against all those guests who spin around hangers with usual H&M fashion line thinking that this is the long-awaited collection by maestro. By the way, the collection is dedicated to his work in actual fact: Margiela's best ideas are collected together for the whole history of the fashion house. The action reminds an ode to the maestro who has left master seat three years ago.
На выходе встречаю стилиста Александра Рогова, сжимающего в руках несколько вешалок с отменным кутюром. "Все подошло?" - спрашивает Саша, и в этот момент я вспоминаю, что именно он - один из главных поклонников Maison Martin Margiela в этом огромном мегаполисе. Этот факт становится еще приятнее на фоне тех гостей, которые кружатся вокруг вешалок с простой линией H&M, на полном серьезе думая, что это и есть та самая долгожданная коллекция от маэстро. Кстати, именно его деятельности, по сути, и посвящена коллекция: в ней собраны лучшие идеи Марджелы за всю историю модного дома. Действо напоминает оду мастеру, покинувшему свой главенствующий пост три года назад.

Standing in the queue to cashier`s desk I become accidental listener of thought of one of the guests: “I guess menswear collection is not enough for me. I`m going to check the women`s one,” tells he to his mate thoughtfully. Seems like the information about agio has passed by him on transparent heels – the ones which became the main hit of collaboration and which disappeared so fast as like hotcakes.
На очереди в кассу становлюсь случайной слушательницей размышлений одного из гостей: "Думаю, мне будет мало мужской коллекции. Сейчас пойду за женской," - задумчиво докладывает он другу. Похоже, информация об ажиотаже прошла мимо него на прозрачных каблуках - именно тех, которые стали бесспорно главным хитом коллаборации и которые, впрочем, так же исчезли, как горячие пирожки.

As a present - T-short bag and absolutely seriously aware that it is not for kitchen-stuff but for packing yours body in. Maison Martin Margiela surprises here too with his creatively different way to fashion, though it looks not so spectacular after crystal embroidered masks, gloves jacket and plastic transparent clutches. But it`s on the register till better times. Polyethylene is not trendy, and thanks God!
В подарок покупателям вручают пакет-майку и абсолютно серьезно предупреждают, что в ней нужно носить не продукты, а паковать свое бренное тело. Maison Martin Margiela и здесь удивляет своим нестандартным подходом к моде, хотя после расшитых камнями масок, курток из перчаток и пластмассовых прозрачных клатчей этот выпад смотрится не столь эффектно. На заметку до лучших времен. Полиэтилен пока не в тренде, и слава богу.


Closer to daybreak the shops is getting empty, but hall is not – a new queue of those who will become more happier at daybreak. MMM - what surge that sound can start!
Со временем магазин пустеет, но не пустеет холл - в нем вновь скапливается новая живая очередь из тех, кто на рассвете станет чуточку счастливее. МММ - как много в этом звуке.

  42. Thank you for sharing with us this insight is lacking. the attractiveness, usefulness, it feels when I finished reading the written language in this blog [obat gatal-gatal merah di badan]. Thanks to all authors. a bit of advice, however, that the author put forward his every interaction. - obat penghilang keloid yang sudah lama

  43. 15th October 2014Quote: "I was standing on. The tall bars and. (the instructor) let go of my ankles and I fell forward and I blocked my fall by (tucking my arms into my chest) and I broke both my arms." Actress Emma Stone gave up on her gymnastics dreams as a child after breaking both her arms while trying to perform a stunt..

    Johnson says the officer grabbed t shirt painting his friend's neck, then tried to pull him into the car before brandishing his weapon and march for science t shirt firing. He says Brown started to run and the officer pursued him, firing multiple times. Johnson and another witness both say Brown was on the street with his hands raised when the officer grinch shirt fired at him repeatedly.
