As we go through fashion week(s) around the world, we get a glimpse of what the trends are going to be for the coming season. Rather, what we're going to be bombarded with when we're looking to re-vamp our wardrobes in six months.
Jean-Paul Gaultier always puts on a quirky runway show, but the Spring/Summer 2013 presentation in Paris on Saturday was more like a concert. Gaultier's collection channeled music stars from the past: Michael Jackson, Grace Jones, Madonna, Sade, Ziggy Stardust. I'm really loving this collection. ESPECIALLY the homage to the Ziggy Stardust era Bowie.
Grace Jones and Boy George were huge inspirations for Gaultier. Look closely and you'll see that the garments are actually quite beautiful and well-constructed: Crisp tuxedoes and pretty floral pants.
That Ziggy ensemble is not for the shy… Maybe Rihanna or Nicki Minaj will take it on stage? That jacket's obviously Beat It-era Michael Jackson, but cut for a lady. And on the right, more menswear cut for women, a la Annie Lennox.
More MJ, more Madonna. And since Gaultier designed the cone bra Madonna wore in her 1990 Blonde Ambition tour, for him, this is a return to roots.
