NEW BALANCE X LOUIS DE GUZMAN

This collaboration sheds petals on De Guzman’s mother and her adoration for all things floral. With childhood memories and bouquets to seize the day, New Balance and De Guzman’s reinterpreted 574 models, “New Balance 574 LDG Ma Divina,” makes all of our hearts sing. It seems like we never stray too far from our past, and as we get older, we learn to smile at the following shadows of our childhood memories.

De Guzman’s incorporation of his Chicagoland run-ins where his mother would arrange bouquets is all he needs to make a color palette. This sneaker features gorgeous pastels, textured materials like leather and suede, and Guzman’s artwork which details his ongoing project, “Between the Lines.” In celebration of the release and as an homage to his mother's love of flowers— Louis designed an experience in Chicago for consumers to come and see the limited-edition pair. Hosted on the 2nd floor of Foot Locker's State Street location, the experience was entitled “Ma Divina’s Flower Shop."

Total Recall

Born in the Moroccan town of Tétouan and educated in Paris, Khattabi’s upbringing required him to make sense of how the different influences surrounding him could align. In turn, his designs explore the embedded codes and history of his bicultural background. Total Recall addresses this phenomon by including garments meant to reflect adaptation and transformation. Skirts made of tire covers and motorcyle tarpaulins refashioned into dresses are scattered across the collection, conveying notions of displacement. Blending these elements adds an industrial touch to the pieces while still keeping a sense of movement.

From sweatpants infused with polka dots to nostaglic slogans and banner display, the ensembles symbolize hidden identities and memories. Giving us a glimpse into his own memories, Khattabi's work evokes affection for the past. It's a nod to the interconnectedness of culture and how we interact with its complexitites creatively.

Revealed at MM6 Maison Margiela’s AW24 show, these designs mix familiar Dr. Martens silhouettes in surprising ways, adding bold new details. Each piece has Dr. Martens’ signature yellow stitching and AirWair heel loop, along with MM6’s unique numbered imprint.

The Dr. Martens x MM6 Maison Margiela collection launches November 19 on both brands’ websites, in select MM6 stores, and at limited retailers.
