I love Jean Paul Gaultier. He is old school, but hip. He is very 80′s, but in a modern way. He is haute couture done rock’n'roll, and that is exactly what this collection is. I remember one of my first weekends living in Paris, I went to Porte de Clignancourt to visit the famous Paris flea market with my new fashion school friends. Jean Paul Gaultier was buying some incredibly expensive, fabulous antique furniture and wearing a nautical striped sweater (SO him!) We were rudely staring at him, our first famous designer encounter, and he turned around and smiled at us. He’s the best!
I love…
a couture trenchcoat.
beautifully thin and extremely soft leather with fur trim.
rounded shoulders and hips.
an incredibly strange yet interesting dress.
awesome shoulders! I love this silhouette.
more amazing shoulders, this time jeweled and square.
I loathe…
the cone cups that look great on Madonna's bustier look crap on a boring blue top.
