Brand’s Communication Maison MartinMargiela does not like to be interviewed because he wants his brand to stay faceless, in result of that he needs to find another ways to communicate with his consumer. One of them is social media. Brand has numerous accounts in various social network channels such as Twitter, Facebook, Pintere st, Instagram, etc. There are brand updates and news which gives a consumer insight into what is going on. Maison Martin Margiela arranges a lot of exhibitions in relation with projects that he is working on with his brand e.g. - Replica fragrance collection Collaborations with other brands such as H&M, Converse on purpose to attract different (younger) range of demographic, who later could possibly become their loyal consumer.

- 21. New concept Bus advertsand bill boards in and around central London‟s classiest hotspots will be marketed with sneak peaks of the furniture and brief concept insights to the “Anomaly” brand. However these will maintain the anonymous theme the brand Margiela holds as well as being informative to attract speculation. Margiela‟s “Anomaly” stores will have selective advertising to ensure target consumers are reached. Adverts will feature in Vogue, Elle, and high end furniture magazines. And a brief short movie will be released for online use 6 months prior to the collection drop as a taster; once again causing speculation.
