Dear Diane, dear shaded viewers,
Finally I’ve managed to post yesterday’s Gaultier show. It was not very impressive despite the magnificent dancer that opened and closed the show with a scotish or gaelic dance -not that into the islands ancient culture, sorry-. She danced so fast that couldn’t even shoot her -and the models I captured are kind of blured, sorry for that too-.
Well, the french adored designer didn’t really dig into the subject -in my opinion- but still people claped and cheered the models.
Let’s see some pics:
Well, the point is: was Gaultier inspired by his living-in-the-british-countriside-friend Madonna?
Who knows. The important thing is that except for a couple of dresses at the end of the show in witch he deconstructed the classic pattern, Tartan, making it look like a Pantone of the Highlands, the rest was kind of: “ok, overdose of Tartan and overdose of furs” -wasn’t Madonna more into ecology?, like vegetarian and so? will she dress them?-.
More images:
He did some nice rocky jackets and wool masks with net shapes too…
And that’s it, I am sure that you feel like seeing something else, something more fresh.
Gaultier is an excellent designer -the cut of some dresses was impecable-, but again, this was not one of his best shows.
P.S.- I want to thank Ramon Fano and the Neo2 team for whom I cover the shows and the reason I can post this show for ASVOF.
