JEAN PAUL GAULTIER

Considered a rebel of fashion, Jean Paul Gaultier has always had a knack for defying norms and expectations. This all started in 1970, when he landed a job working as Pierre Cardin’s assistant without any formal training. From then on he continued to surprise, creating eccentric designs and formulating his own identity that is now easily distinguished from the rest. He opened his own house in 1983 and rose to the very top of the industry, with the brand becoming best known for their iconic corsets, exaggerated silhouettes, and trompe l'oeil styles that continue to influence fashion today.
