The theme for JPG’s couture collection was brides…. and there was something for every kind of bride. Some of the outfits were half man/ half woman style which reminded me of that movie, Victor/Victoria. My fave has to be the farmer girl getting married in blue satin overalls. The only thing …

Wow… It’s really the end of an era. I remember first discovering Jean Paul Gaultier when I was still in high school during the mid -nineties …. Bjork (Debut), Madonna during her Blonde Ambition Tour and MTV’s House of Style days. I admired his ability to marry avant guard (without being …

As usual Jean Paul Gaultier gave us a very dramatic couture show with a sizzling finale featuring that famous lady boy with the five o’clock shadow. I have no idea who is, mainly because I don’t watch much TV, except for Sesame Street and Ninjago, so please don’t hold it against …

Here is Gaultier’s latest collection featuring a slew of intergalactic punks that come in all different ages. Punk is certainly timeless and I think will last until the end of time when the Thetans take over and make us humans slaves out of us. We will still be rocking the …

At Jean Paul Gaultier’s haute couture show, it was all butterfly-themed. Either Gaultier has been watching ‘Silence of the Lambs’ (I know it’s really a moth, just go with me here) or he’s been jamming to Mariah Carey’s Butterfly one too many times. Either way, it was a beautimus collection, …

It was all about leather motorcycle jackets at Gaultier’s latest collection. Could it be that Jean-Paul is reveling in ‘Teen Beach Movie‘??? Is he trying to tell us he’s not a surfer but a BIKER??? Is this collection cryptic of his questionable taste for really, really bad Disney TV …

How do you say gorgeous in French? Le Gorgeous? Nope! Jean Paul Gaultier!! I loved every piece (which is rare) of this collection. From the Cruella DeVil leopard pieces to the thick piped dresses in gold and nude, this was it! Those conical hats have a funnel quality …

Here are my favorite looks from Jean Paul Gaultier’s Spring Haute Couture show. The fifth photo is awesome! It’s like an ‘elegant’ redo of the Madonna cone bra corset. Only Gaultier can make boobs look like chic traffic cones. The finale of his shows is usually a wedding …

Gaultier’s show was a parade of all the 1980’s icons in music… Madonna, Annie Lennox, Michael Jackson, Sade, Boy George, David Bowie… basically everyone who was on MTV first back when they were playing music videos and not a bunch of trashy, drunk, oompa loompa’s in their habitat. Anywho, I thought …

That Gaultier! He’s been watching Pee Wee’s Playhouse again! How else can you ‘splain his obsession with turbans and genies as apparent in his resort collection and 5th look above? I do love the 2nd and 3rd outfits – totally flapper- love it. I’m glad he went back to his …
