Martin Margiela . . . gone.

After months of rumors, it has finally been confirmed that Martin Margiela, creative director of the eponymous house has left. He will not be replaced. The current design team of 28 people amassed over the past 20 years will continue to produce the collections. Diesel has controlled the fashion label for the past seven years and whether or not the brand will remain relevant and influential without the elusive Mr. Margiela remains to be seen.
