Belgian designer Martin Margiela, perhaps the fashion world's most mysterious figure, is as well known for his refusal to interact with the press or participate in interviews, as he is for his iconic collections and the split-toed silhouette of his trademark Tabi boots. While few have managed to crack into Margiela's reclusive world, Director Reiner Holzemer's new film honoring the designer, “Martin Margiela: In His Own Words,” offers viewers a glimpse into his private life and work like never before.
