Glenn Martens Rumored to Take the Helm at Maison Margiela

Glenn Martens is rumored to succeed John Galliano as creative director at Maison Margiela.

Speculation is stirring across Paris, with whispers that Glenn Martens might step into the creative director role at Maison Margiela. According to a recent report by WWD, Martens, currently leading Diesel and celebrated for his work at Y/Project, is rumored to succeed John Galliano at the iconic Parisian house.

Martens has earned a reputation for pushing boundaries with his avant-garde approach to design. Since taking over as Diesel’s creative director in 2020, he has redefined the brand’s identity, infusing it with experimental elements that have resonated with a new generation. His expertise in “twisted constructions” and his ability to reinterpret traditional silhouettes make him an exciting prospect for Maison Margiela.

If the rumors prove true, this would mark a pivotal moment for Margiela. Galliano, who stepped down at the end of 2024, left the house in a celebrated state with his critically acclaimed Spring 2024 Artisanal couture collection. This departure set the stage for a creative reset, and Martens appears poised to bring his distinctive vision to the house’s storied legacy.

The Belgian designer’s credentials further bolster his suitability for the role. A graduate of Antwerp’s Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Martens first caught the industry’s eye when Jean Paul Gaultier recruited him as a junior designer after seeing his graduation collection. His subsequent work at Y/Project, where he served as creative director until its closure earlier this year, solidified his place as one of fashion’s boldest innovators. Notably, Martens also dabbled in haute couture, guest-designing for Jean Paul Gaultier in 2022—a valuable experience that could complement Margiela’s Artisanal line.

While representatives for OTB, Maison Margiela’s parent company, have not commented on the speculation, the timing aligns with OTB’s broader strategic efforts. The group, led by Renzo Rosso, controls an impressive portfolio that includes Diesel, Jil Sander, Marni, Viktor & Rolf, and a stake in Amiri. Martens’ transition from Diesel to Margiela would not only maintain creative continuity within the OTB fold but also capitalize on his proven ability to balance commercial success with artistic experimentation.

As the fashion world awaits official confirmation, one thing is certain: if Glenn Martens does take the reins at Maison Margiela, his tenure promises to be nothing short of transformative. The house, known for its deconstructionist ethos and avant-garde heritage, seems a fitting next chapter for a designer whose career has been defined by innovation and reinvention.
