On his first collection at Maison Margiela, Galliano told Alexandra Schulman, the ex-Editor of British Vogue, “Although one must respect the DNA of the house & the heritage, I didn’t want to become a slave to it, which is what happened at Dior… I kind of wanted to move on as well”. Galliano’s Maison Margiela is “inspired by Martin” but “not taken from one of his.” So, we see the birth of Recicla earlier this year.
