Jean Paul Gaultier's final ready-to-wear show Give Me Five
Vive la Miss! Lives Jean Paul Gaultier!
L 'enfant terrible of French fashion says goodbye to the pret-a-porter with a spectacular parody of a beauty contest. Inside the Grand Rex theater as a child where the designer went to see the fountains at Christmas, staged the Miss Gaultier, then won by model Coco Rocha, while, between champagne and popcorn, Catherine Deneuve, Boy George, Pierre Cardin, Alexander Wang, Anthony Vaccarello and many others attend fun.
With Rossy De Palma to be godfather, the models in version miss, wife of football players, weather, Tour de France, fashion editors, from Suzy Menkes and Grace Coddingtonn, celebrating his great classics: bustier dresses, ripped jeans, masks Mexican wrestler, blue and white stripes and complete tuxedo.
It is not just a fashion show, it's a celebration, a tribute to a career that has lasted nearly 40 years, during which Jean Paul Gaultier has changed the world of fashion. From now on revolutionary and ingenious, the designer merges theatricality and haute couture, sexuality and religion, pop culture and provocation. Thanks to him, there is no longer any distinction of gender, male and female are just a state of mind, women wear tailored suits and men's skirt. Send catwalk transvestites, strippers and women cannon, thus changing the conventional concept of beauty. Makes chic sailors, making the t-shirt in blue and white striped one of his iconic pieces. The other? The cone bra made famous by Madonna in the 90s. It 's always about Gaultier if the underwear and outwear corset becomes an indispensable piece.
Full of humor, lively, playful, tailoring, his irreverent fashion is loved by stars such as Kylie Minogue and Dita Von Teese, but also by many directors like Almodovar and Besson. Naomi Campbell, Carla Bruni, Kate Moss, Coco Rocha, models are queuing up to work with the designer, for his prestige certainly, but also for freedom and humanity that distinguish it.
Of course remains the haute couture, but the parades of pret-a-porter lose a great protagonist. And to console us, handkerchief in hand, we give you our top five among all its collections, to cries of Vive Jean Paul Gaultier!
