There are still a few days to catch the stunning Maison Margiela “Artisanal” collection exhibition. The 13-piece display, created by the French fashion house’s creative director, John Galliano, is on view at Maxfield’s Jean Prouvé house through Sept. 21. The pieces are arrayed in glass cases, and the intricacy and complexity with which they were conceived and created are on full display. Galliano finds avantgarde ways to layer fabrics, including wool, organza and chiffon, and builds striking images using leather, crystals and feathers, each designed to present an illusion. In celebratio­n, Maison Margiela released a $390 limited-edition T-shirt with a design inspired by selfie filters. Maison Margiela’s “Artisanal” collection exhibition at Maxfield, 8825 Melrose Ave., L.A., until Sept. 21; 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday and noon to 5 p.m. Sunday, maxfieldla.com
