It was the most hotly anticipated event of Paris fashion week, the last ever ready-to-wear show from Jean Paul Gaultier. On the stage of the famous Grand Rex cinéma, actrice Rossy de Palma indulges her inner burlesque. Gaultier was inspired by beauty pageant and fashion editor. Since 1976, Jean Paul Gaultier has been a byword for provocation. He does a lot more than simply make women beautiful. Like Coco Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent before him, his influence extends far beyond the fashion world
Jean Paul Gaultier is the designer celebrated for dressing Madonna in a conical bra, popularising skirts for boys and turning the French navy's famous marinière striped T-shirt into a wardrobe classic. Now about to turn 70, the designer has organised the exhibition “Ciné-mode”, at Paris’s Cinémathèque on the influence of film on his creations. FRANCE 24’s Sonia Patricelli went to meet the designer.
A national farewell was given to Bébel on Friday with the Hotel des Invalides in Paris turned into an open-air cinema for the occasion.
Supermodel Gigi Hadid was told she "didn't have a runway body" when she first started modelling.
It was the hot ticket of the Haute Couture 2020 collections: Jean-Paul Gaultier’s final catwalk show, after a 50-year career. Paris's Châtelet Theatre was packed to the rafters and the atmosphere was electric as the French designer unveiled a collection made up of 200 pieces, all featuring his trademark details: the iconic Breton striped shirt, underwear worn as outerwear, the conical bra and embroidered jeans. Everyone is now wondering what he's going to do next. Watch our show to find out!
