Gaultier Questions V

1. Meadham Kirchhoff Fall/Winter 2010
2. Jean-Paul Gaultier Fall/Winter 2003

Once upon a time. A story about princesses and queens. They both love glitter and drama. Dressing up, hidding their identity behind the veils of mysticism. But how does the story truly end?

Intrigue, das Ränkespiel

Jean-Paul Gaultier Spring/Summer 1994 & Paolo Roversi

The beautiful thing about fashion is that you will never be satisfied. Each obsession will find its continuation in another obsession. Fashion is the eternal search for perfection in that exact moment. And therefore it is fundamentally needed.

Nuclear Whiteness

Dior Homme Spring/Summer 2012

Once ahead our time... when we live in underground bunkers, artificial brutalist spaces made of concrete, furnished with leather and Persian carpets. Sleeveless will become the uniform. Tribal tattoos will indicate the social rank.

Forbidden Love III

Isn't it nice to have obsessions? Some unfulfilled fantasies. Things that shouldn't be but manifest themselves irreparably. Just like a tribal tattoo on tanned skin.

Syncrisis

Prince of Persia 1989 & 2010

Please excuse my latest 80s-boy-loves-adventure-fairytale-computer-game-movie-adaption tendendies. But did I already share my childhood addiction of playing Prince of Persia on my 486 PC? Now you know.

Alienesque

John Galliano Spring/Summer 2003

Porcelain dolls in exuberant colours. Wrapped in tunics, veils, dresses and scarfs. Too much of everything. Too much of romanticism. Too much of orientalism. Overdosage of such a degree only a John Galliano is allowed to.
