Creative director of French fashion house Balmain since 2011, it’s time for Olivier Rousteing\u2019s to try his hand at a Jean Paul Gaultier guest appearance at Paris Haute Couture fashion week<\/a>. Stepping up to the plate and helming the house\u2019s Haute Couture Fall\/Winter 2022 collection, Rousteing sourced inspiration from the brand\u2019s most groundbreaking designs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With Paul Gaultier\u2019s singular design DNA interwoven throughout the latest collection, Rousteing truly manifested the artistry of the prolific “enfant terrible” of French fashion, paying homage to the legendary designer. Providing the founder with over 200 sketches in the early stages of the collaboration, there\u2019s no denying Rousteing\u2019s reverence for the house. \u201cI have no words to express what happened yesterday,\u201d he posted to social media<\/a>. \u201cI will never forget this adventure.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Rousteing sent a modernized and modest version of Madonna\u2019s risqu\u00e9 1992 breast-baring AMFAR Gala pinstripe dress down the runway on Lara Stone, while Kim Kardashian<\/a> debuted the reimagined dress from the front row alongside her mother, Kris Jenner, and daughter North West.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Quite a few runway looks mirrored that of Gaultier\u2019s Spring\/Summer 1994 collection <\/span>Les Tatouages,<\/span><\/i> with retro sunnies, nose ring chains, layered necklaces, an eclectic array of printed patchwork, denim, the house\u2019s signature nautical <\/span>tricot ray\u00e9 stripes, and sheer tattoo motif.<\/span><\/p>\n

With perennial house treasure troves like the cone bra<\/a> immortalized by Madonna, <\/span>Rousteing referenced the silhouette in fabrications like gold metallic tin and woven wicker, while embellishing the pointed busts in metal boning, swirling seams and shimmering rhinestones.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Inventive breastplates, molds of pregnant baby bumps, <\/span>intricate corset lacing, kicky berets, pin cushions, heart-shaped bustiers, trompe-<\/span>l’oeil techniques and more all gave a respectful nod to Gaultier\u2019s iconic career. <\/span>Including influences from Gaultier\u2019s most memorable perfumes, <\/span>Rousteing sent human decanters down the runway, resembling the brand\u2019s <\/span>Le Male and Classique eau de parfum bottles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tapping a new “guest creative director” for each Haute Couture collection, the retired couturier sees a new designer put their unique twist on the Paul Gaultier vision. Following the likes of Glenn Marten\u2019s critically acclaimed collection, Rousteing expertly intertwined his Balmain influences with that of Gaultier\u2019s staples. <\/span><\/p>\n

The 37-year-old designer wrote on Instagram<\/a>, \u201cU have been such an inspiration [to] me forever.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cThank you for your trust, your respect, and your vision. It was more than a show, it was a human adventure,\u201d extending his heartfelt gratitude to all members of the JPG team for making the show happen.
