CONFESSIONS OF A
CHILD OF THIS CENTURY

Everybody loves Glenn

Martens. Within just a few
seasons
he has brought forward an
architectural aesthetic
inspired
from the 90s, which intends
to defy good taste. A
rendezvous
with the incredibly romantic
creative director of Y/Project.

Do you agree with the term
unisex?
Isnt it a bit unfashionable?

Glenn Martens: Im not sure if

that word
is suitable. I make some clothes
for men
and the others for women and, in
this large
dressing room, 40 per cent of my
creations
are for both. When I start
sketching it is
a single, large collection.
Unisex is just
a simple way of classifying the
clothing.

I can be an ascetic staying shut up in my apartment for

dont believe in following a single path.

Do you still feel this freedom

in todays violent world, with
elected heads of state who do not propagate
diversity and openness?
I feel them both simultaneously, on the one hand a
world which is becoming more closeminded and over
conservative and then the people around me who have
and enjoy this freedom. Who are not afraid.

Your beauty tips and everyday

I start with a Caudalie cleansing foam,
then a serum and a Caudalie day
cream. As for make up, I prefer to
remain natural, I dont like to modify my
complexion or put on any effects that
are obvious. Just some SPF 50, lipstick
and mascara.

Who takes care of your hair?

I am a fan of the David Mallett salon in
Paris, one finds the best colourists
there. I try not to wash my hair too
often to prevent them from becoming
too sensitive. I use Oribe products or
vinegar for the shine and LOfficie

When art imitates life and fashion

magnificent fusion is born. We take a close

Probably the most re-posted look from the
2017 fashion week in Paris was at the
Maison Margiela Artisanal show, where an
all white trench coat by John Galliano was
adorned by a ghostly portrait made of tulle,
by multi-disciplinary artist Benjamin Shine.
The dark mesh material that continues to
wrap the models silhouette, even beyond
the limits of the garment, creates a
sculpture that apparently took more than
300 hours to make. Priceless. Who can put a
price on art, you might say, especially when
it turns into an everyday piece you can
actually live in. For more LOfficiel INDIA
