Fashion battle
April 24, 2012
A bit like on The Voice, I’m going to throw some images of furniture from two different fashion houses at you and let them battle it out for themselves.
Both were launched in Milan last week.
Welcome to the stage, Marni!
And, Maison. Martin. Margiela….!
A bit like putting Kate Bush next to Dido isn’t it? Is it just me, or would you expect a bit more from the Triple M? Maybe that whole wonky white schtick was a bit more tasteful or visionary in the flesh, but I’m turning my chair back around.
Marni on the other hand, which recruited ex-prisoners in Colombia to make 100 chairs for a social-meets-design project, got it pitch perfect. Those colours.
No contest.

Marni Marni Marni every time, ethically sound and beautiful, plus my daughters name!
Oooh nice name.
The Marni ones, although I dread to think what my cat would do to them.
