Okay so let me say this now... thrilled that Jen Paul
Gaultier gave u the grind of ready to wear and focused on the Haute Couture. Of
course no doubt, this collection will be “reviewed” as if it is ready to wear
but such is the wont of an ignorant press. RifRaf, you listening here!! Blah
blah you too?
When designers write and develop their own DNA for their
eponymous brands and remain loyal to it, they are able to render collections
that remain timeless and chock full of clothes that delight their clients. No better
place to do this tan in Haute Couture as it must again be stated that these shows
are for customers of the retail buying variety and NOT the so called retailers
hence they should be judged accordingly.
JPG clients will be throwing themselves at him this season to own another piece
or 2 or 3, if they are lucky, as the collection was rife with the trademarks of
the “enfant terrible.” Exquisite and precise tailoring, loads of jackets,
plenty of his ½ and ½ styles, an incredible iridescent taffeta trench, a wildly
imaginative take of jeans and much more! Unfortunately, there was no leopard
but as a consolation prize, if you consider winning the couture lotter as a consolation,
he gave us python… and enough it to make his ladies squirm with delight as it
was incredibly beautiful.
Being the naughty boy he is, the show had multiple finales, multiple
brides, a tease of his some of his famous mannequins of the past and a health y
does of fashion irreverence. My favorite aspect of his couture shows is that
the clothes have e a certain chic to them while still retaining his inimitable
DNA as well as infusing his humor during these oh so serious shows. The ways in
which he coaxed python and python prints is worthy of being referred to as
masterful by exceeding one’s imagination and expectations! Got that rifRaf?
So the take away here, Bravo JPG! Keep ‘em coming!
