Created in 1997, Maison Margiela Line 6 was a subline for contemporary women, with heavy emphasis on bridging femininity and casual wear. Originally conceived as a simpler but still avant garde continuation of Margiela, serving as a more affordable option compared to Mainline.
Line 6 revolved around the transformation of everyday garments, focusing on modularity, functionality, and innovation. During its formative years, Line 6 often referenced Margiela's other lines while exploring different material weights and reinterpreting classic shapes.
As the Maison grew larger, emerging designer Sebastien Meunier took over and managed Line 6 between 2000 and 2005.
Transitioning away from the signature four stitches, Margiela's Line 6 was rebranded as MM6 in June 2004, with labels stitched in a straight line across the top. In 2009, Maison Martin Margiela's name changed to Maison Margiela when Martin departed from the brand. MM6 became a logomaniac diffusion line thereon after, recycling some of his most iconic and groundbreaking designs till date.
This long sleeve features an asymmetrical drape running down theshoulders. Allowing the wearer to manipulate the shape of the garment.
