MMM London Fever


London is a cool city in many ways. If you are a Nature-lover, you can hang out and enjoy the many Royal Parks. If you're a history-lover, you'll be extatic while walking down the streets or visiting the museums. But if you're a fashion lover, you should go to the new exhibition in the Somerset House of Maison Martin Margiela.



One year ago the premiere of this great white-painted expo was set in the MoMu (the fashionmuseum) in Antwerp. As I work for the Momu as a guide, it was a very interesting experience for me to see the same exhibition, but in a different place. Bob Verhelst, one of Belgium's finest scenographer, has a great relation with Belgian Fashion. He worked several years at the MMM and now he's the scenographer of the house at MoMu. Paper Fashion, Delvaux, Bernhard Wilhelm and ofcourse MMM are a few of his pieces of art.






The launch of the expo was a very nice one. Imagine a big wonderful building with fontaines in the middle, a big terrace with a marvelous view on the Thames, drinks and snacks a volonté and nice company. I love London, but Maison Martin Margiela even more...


Thank you Michael for being a splendid photographer!
