Maison Margiela's boutique, which garnered significant attention in Paris, opened its doors at Fukuoka's Iwataya on Friday, May 22nd. This marks the brand's first shop in Fukuoka, offering ready-to-wear womenswear, shoes, leather goods, accessories, and fragrances. As with other stores, the interior design was handled by Maison Margiela's design team. The predominantly white interior features unfinished-style molding on the walls and fixtures. Trompe-l'œil effects are playfully incorporated, such as the marble-patterned floor partially covered with carpet of the same design.

Additionally, limited-edition items have been released to celebrate this opening. These include boots with charming cylindrical heels featuring vibrant hand-painted daisy motifs, and a daisy-motif finger ring. Both were presented during the brand's 2015 Spring/Summer ready-to-wear show.
