Maison Margiela 2014 Autumn/Winter Minimal V-Neck Knit Vest

Centered on anonymity and structural beauty, Maison Margiela has continually questioned the very nature of clothing, and here we introduce a knit vest that elevates layered styling with a quiet presence.

This exquisite piece features a gentle shadow created by soft beige-toned yarns and highlights the beauty of the surface utilizing negative space.

The neckline features a V-neck rib that creates depth, while the body is made from a smooth knit fabric with minimal embellishments, ensuring that when it complements shirt collars or the necklines of cut-and-sew, the overall styling looks neat and streamlined.

The armholes are also carefully ribbed, preventing the arms from looking elongated, and when layered under a jacket or coat, it minimizes bulk while maintaining the soft texture unique to knitwear, striking a balanced silhouette.

On the back, the four stitches symbolizing the maison are subtly placed, functioning as a subtle sign that doesn't overstate, allowing you to naturally enjoy the vintage context.

Regarding the authenticity of the era, it can be identified from the label on the inner tag as a piece from Fall/Winter 2014, clarifying its background as a 14-year AW item, and with the consistent brand codes such as the number tag design and four-stitch placement, it visually guarantees the maison's authenticity.

Because the everyday format of a knit vest is finished so impeccably, it can be easily picked up without pretense, yet the sophistication of the outfit is elevated, making it a standout piece especially for those with a minimal wardrobe who can easily notice the difference when paired.

In terms of styling, layering with a shirt and slacks creates a clean look that embodies Margiela's characteristic quiet tension, and by adding a tailored jacket over a simple cut-and-sew, you can subtly add depth and achieve an elegant finish.

Definitely take this opportunity.
