JEAN PAUL GAULTIER UNVEILS HAUTE COUTURE “LE NAUFRAGE” COLLECTION BY LUDOVIC DE SAINT SERNIN

Jean Paul Gaultier, the renowned French fashion designer, has once again captivated the fashion world with his latest Haute Couture collection, “Le Naufrage”. This collection, unveiled during Paris Fashion Week, draws inspiration from the sea, blending Gaultier’s signature avant-garde style with nautical themes.

In a notable collaboration, Ludovic de Saint Sernin, the youngest designer to undertake the role of guest designer for Jean Paul Gaultier, contributed to the “Le Naufrage” collection. Known for his provocative and gender-fluid fashion, de Saint Sernin’s involvement brought a fresh and audacious perspective to the collection. 

 

The runway was transformed into a maritime spectacle, with models adorned in ensembles that echoed the depths of the ocean. Flowing gowns reminiscent of seaweed swayed gracefully, while structured pieces evoked the formidable strength of ocean liners. The color palette ranged from deep navy blues to shimmering silvers, capturing the essence of the sea’s ever-changing hues.

A standout piece was a floor-length gown crafted from iridescent fabric, reflecting the mesmerizing play of light on water. The gown featured intricate beadwork resembling coral reefs, showcasing Gaultier’s meticulous attention to detail. Another highlight was a tailored jacket with a high collar, reminiscent of a captain’s coat, paired with a flowing skirt that billowed like a ship’s sail.

Accessories played a pivotal role in the collection. Models wore headpieces designed to mimic the delicate patterns of seashells, and footwear that resembled the texture of sand. The use of transparent materials added a modern twist, symbolizing the clarity and depth of the ocean.

“Le Naufrage” reaffirms Jean Paul Gaultier’s status as a visionary in the fashion industry, seamlessly merging artistic expression with haute couture craftsmanship. The collection not only pays homage to the sea but also showcases Gaultier’s unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of fashion design.
