The 10th volume in the “Catwalk” collection, featuring all the haute couture and ready-to-wear collections by Jean Paul Gaultier from 1977 to 2020.
The first complete presentation of Jean Paul Gaultier’s womenswear collections, from his early days in the late 1970s to his farewell to the runway in 2020, through original images from the fashion shows.
Often described as fashion’s “enfant terrible,” Jean Paul Gaultier injected new energy into ready-to-wear before pushing the boundaries of haute couture, blurring the lines between masculine and feminine, refinement and subculture, while never ceasing to celebrate models of all ages and origins.
Bringing together more than 40 years of the designer’s iconic collections, Laird Borrelli-Persson retraces, through 124 shows, the story of the couturier and of the radically innovative fashion house that bears his name.
With over 1,300 emblematic and carefully curated photographs, this treasure trove of inspiration is an essential reference for fashion professionals and admirers of Jean Paul Gaultier.
Already published in the “Catwalk” collection: Chanel, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Yves Saint Laurent, Prada, Vivienne Westwood, Versace, Chloé, Givenchy.
