Martin Margiela: M Shirt

Last year the YSL logo tee shirt was the it shirt to have. If you had the shirt then you were cool. The price tag on the tee shirt ensured that only true fans of YSL or real hypebeast would make that purchase, so exclusivity wasn't an issue. Next year I predict that this Martin Margiela shirt will take the place of the YSL logo tee as the it shirt to have. As of now this line hasn't been mainstreamed which means that the masses aren't wearing it but 2009 may be it's break out year. With artist like Kanye West and Jadakiss plugging the clothing line in their lyrics and a shirt as flashy as this one it won't be long before everyone feels like they have to have it. Lets not forget that red and black Martin Margiela motorcycle jacket worn by Pharrell Willams at the Diesel party earlier this year.
