A striking archival accessory from Maison Martin Margiela dating to the 2000s, embodying the house’s avant garde approach to jewelry and adornment. Designed as a sculptural oversized collar, this dramatic piece blurs the line between accessory and garment, a signature concept within the world of Martin Margiela.
Crafted from nude beige leather completely covered in shimmering rhinestones, the necklace creates an almost armor like effect around the neckline while maintaining an elegant fluidity when worn. The exaggerated square silhouette frames the shoulders beautifully and catches light from every angle, making it an exceptional statement piece for styling, editorial wear, or collecting. The back fastens with industrial style metal hooks, reinforcing Margiela’s deconstructed aesthetic and artisanal craftsmanship.
The contrast between raw leather backing and densely applied crystal embellishment reflects the maison’s fascination with transformation and unconventional luxury. Rare and highly collectible, especially in such a wearable and visually impactful form.
Condition: Very good vintage condition with minor signs of wear consistent with age. One rhinestone at the back appears slightly dull compared to the others. Please refer to photos for details.
Size: One size. Adjustable fit with hook fastening at the back.
