EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment from French designer Jean-Paul Gaultier's Spring-Summer 1992 ready-to-wear collection in Paris. The image showcases a model donning a wig and presenting a daring bathing suit, embodying the essence of retro fashion. Jean-Paul Gaultier, who would later celebrate his 30-year fashion career in October 2006, has always been known for his ability to astonish and outrage with his designs. From introducing the famous skirt for men in 1985 to creating iconic pieces like Madonna's cone-shaped bustier, Gaultier pushes the boundaries of style inspired by the streets of Paris and London. Often referred to as the "enfant terrible" of haute couture, Jean-Paul Gaultier challenges traditional definitions of beauty and ugliness, elegance and vulgarity. His creations evoke both awe and controversy, making him an influential figure in the world of high fashion. The photograph itself is visually striking with its vertical composition capturing the full length of the model's body. It exudes an air of intrigue as it juxtaposes elements such as nudity alongside unconventional styling choices. Taken by Pierre Guillaud for Agence France-Presse (AFP), this print encapsulates not only a specific moment in Gaultier's illustrious career but also represents his ongoing commitment to pushing boundaries within the realm of fashion.
