>> You may have thought Martin Margiela an unlikely man to grow his brand in a big way, but his plans say otherwise.  A new eyewear style for Spring 2009, his first scent for Fall 2009, but first: A fine jewelry collection in conjunction with Damiani.

The chunky, minimalist collection of 14 pieces arrives in stores in November, with prices ranging from $1,100 to $61,800.  Margiela plans to design one fine jewelry collection a year.
