Overview: Since its inception in 1988, Maison Margiela has stood as a quiet radical in the luxury landscape, championing the principles of non-conformity and the subversion of norms to maintain a poetic resistance to traditional dress codes. Today, Margiela continues to blur boundaries between art and apparel, the past and the avant-garde, producing designs that are as intellectually charged as they are emotionally resonant. At the helm of this paradoxical powerhouse is Gaetano Sciuto, CEO of Maison Margiela. With a career that spans luxury strategy and international growth – from his time as President of Fendi Americas to his tenure as CEO of Giorgio Armani America – Gaetano now guides Margiela’s uniquely conceptual universe, harmonising creativity with commerce to ensure that the brand remains a place where disruption is not a threat but rather a guiding principle. At its core, his role is less about managing margins and more about curating meaning. Maison Margiela: Inside Out examines how the brand was built on the philosophy of fashion as an artistic expression, how leadership in a creative maison demands both structure and surrender, and how an unconventional brand can preserve their soul while evolving with the rhythm of culture.
Event Format: The event will begin with a welcome from the Ambassador of Italy, which will then be followed by a 50-minute interview moderated by the Director of Voiceroom before ending with an audience Q&A. During the final Q&A segment, we kindly ask that you keep your questions concise, respectful and relevant to the discussion. Please be aware that, by attending this event, you may be captured in photography or film footage.
Note on Payment: When you register for a ticket, a hold will be placed on your payment method. This means that, while your registration is pending approval or you are on the waitlist, your payment method will be held and will not be charged. For some guests, it may look like the hold on your payment method is a charge, but please rest assured this is not the case and it depends on how your bank or credit/debit card provider logs transactions.
If your registration is approved, Luma will complete the charge so that the funds are captured, and your status will change to ‘Going.’
If your registration is declined or you cancel your registration while on the waitlist, your status will change to 'Not Going' and Luma will automatically lift the hold on your card to cancel the payment authorisation. This may take a few days to show up on your card statement.
If your registration was approved but you are no longer able to attend, Luma will be able to fully refund your ticket as long as you cancel your approved registration before November 2 (i.e., 10 days before the event). Your ticket will become non-refundable by November 2.
Please keep in mind that all ticket sales and payment processing for this event are handled exclusively by Luma. Voiceroom does not process, collect or manage payments directly and therefore cannot be held responsible for any payment-related issues, which should be raised directly with the ticketing provider.
