Jean Paul Gaultiatrix




Jean Paul Gaultier showed a dominatrix styled show for fall 09. Not such a surprise coming from the man that designed Madonna's tour costumes: skin tight black suits and kilts for her male backup dancers.
The runway was set to walk through a setup of a kind of 50's style cabaret; models coming to the end of the runway sipping whiskey out of glass cups. classy.

All dressed up in him and hers; men had three piece suits and women had high-necked structured pieces. Primarily in black; blue, red, white and camel touches were added here & there too.

All of the looks had an S&M quality about them, complete with black fishnets and "X" cut outs.

The show ended with new supermodel Coco Rocha getting into a fight in a mud pit with another model, only being put to a stop by a real dominatrix, complete with a whip.
Is all this too taboo or could you make it your own ?

  1. I think that they could of made it their own by adding diverse assecories like belts and hats. There's always different ways to jazz up a style and make it your own.

  2. You can always make it your own. Fashion is all about letting people see your true self. There could be a bunch of ways to make something boring into something that's worthy of Fashion Week. The key part is making sure that it reflects your own personality.
