John Galliano’s look book shoot for Maison Margiela pre-fall 2016 blurred the lines of masculine and feminine. A black taffeta-and-organza blouse with a beaded playing-card motif worn with a bonded gray A-line tweed skirt was traditionally feminine, while a teal double-breasted wool blazer bore the classic mannish cut of a wide shoulder.

The transformational/trompe l’oeil effects packed a punch on a garçon jacket with a lining that could also be worn as a shirt and a shift dress that resembled a pair of men’s trousers on a hanger.
