Maison Margiela Line 2 at Maison Margiela Tokyo​

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of our first flagship Maison Margiela Tokyo Ebisu at 2-8-13, we present a Line 2 installation on view at the store from 5-15 November.​

“UNRAVELLED MEMORY, REWOVEN FUTURE”​

Line 2 is our initiative for creative dialogue. For this instalment, Tokyo-based artist Mio Suzuki and historic French tapestry manufacturers Les Manufactures Nationales– Sèvres & Mobilier national collaborate to create an artwork that explores themes of deconstruction, time, and memory through tapestry, titled ”UNRAVELLED MEMORY, REWOVEN FUTURE”. ​

The process

For the installation, Les Manufactures Nationales curated a selection of 59 contemporary and antique tapestries in Paris, some of which were sourced from flea markets in France and date back nearly 400 years. ​They were shipped to Mio Suzuki in Tokyo, where, over three months, the artist intricately unravelled and rewove them into a series of pieces installed across the store.​

A creative dialogue​

The collaboration offers not only a dialogue between two different creative perspectives – Mio Suzuki as artist and Le Mobilier national as collector and material fabricator – but also one of shared relationships to time, culture, and memory. ​

Tapestry: material exploration​

Tapestry is integral to our garment study and material exploration since the 1990s and is continued in our Fall Winter 2026 collection.​
