smushed

I liked several pieces in Maison Martin Margiela's Spring 2011 collection and took issue with Style.com's lazy review. Too often that website dismisses garments simply because they are not deemed 'wearable'. What a shame and a bore.

The first thing I though of upon seeing the collection was a scene from Modern Times, in which the tramp (Charlie Chaplin) accidently puts his boss' coat (pocket watch and all) into a huge industrial squashing-machine.

It has since struck me that the more obvious reference is a packaged men's shirt. Duh.
