Jean Paul Gaultier 링

After establishing himself as the enfant terrible of the fashion world with convention-defying womenswear, Jean Paul Gaultier launched his first men’s collection in 1984. Avant-garde interpretations of menswear featuring low-cut backs, skirts, and dresses earned him recognition for pushing the boundaries of androgyny in design. Taking inspiration from the streets of working-class Paris, theater, and marine-inspired uniforms, the Gaultier aesthetic is instantly recognizable—jacquard knits, graphic-printed mesh, and experimental interpretations of classic tailoring make a definitive statement. Harmoniously blending a sophisticated yet grunge aesthetic, the Gaultier house merges the functional wear of the working class with the glitz and glamour of theatrics, resulting in gender-bending menswear both inclusive and progressive.
