Mark your calendars for November 30 -- that's when the Maison Martin Margiela Artisanal Collection will be available for the first time ever online, at Yoox.com. (It was previously sold exclusively at Margiela boutiques.)

The avant-garde Maison Martin Margiela label has had a cult-following since the '80s. And the artsy Artisinal Collection (including both men's and women's garments) will feature rare, one-off pieces that have been reworked by hand in Margiela's Parisian atelier.

Starting on Monday, Yoox.com will devote a special section of its Website to the 100 garments for sale, which include a "disco ball top" covered in mini mirrored squares, a dress made out of records, a wedding gown created from three other vintage wedding dresses, and the shaggy Margiela wigs jacket, which is, as it sounds, made out of wigs.

Each of the pricey pieces will be on the site until they sell out and a portion of all proceeds will go to the Rosa Spier House in Holland, a non-profit organization offering housing to retired artists and academics.
