Alexander McQueen Pre-Spring Collection Preview




It is safe to say, the girl has talent. Here is a sneakpeek at Sarah Burton's first women's collection for Alexander McQueen. Her goal, she said, was to "juxtapose the pale and the delicate with the bold and armorial. It’s about a highly structured torso that gives way to a more fluid silhouette or drop waists that lead to a finned trouser or skirt."

Jean Paul Gaultier's Marrakech Nights/Men's Spring 2010


Jean Paul Gaultier's dash of drama and runway sensuality,  always remain cool and hot.
While we are inundated with designers who are either too quirky or too mediocre in fashion essence and sensibilities  to the point of being as banal as canned food, Gaultier  has mastered a great paradox that makes him  a fine  fashion French survivor in this world of instant fame and equally instant obscurity: he  gives with one hand, that which he  takes from the other.




He  gives his  fashion the audacity with the same self-assurance, supremely confident of what he projects. Jean Paul Gaultier  makes it amply clear about one thing – he  is the master of his own image. He  does not overkill. 




In a trigger-economic crunch, uncertain fashion era that believes ‘reinvention’ is the mantra to fashion designer's longevity, Gaultier  is consistent with his image. He is not wielding his craft and artistry to giant fashion conglomerates..he works for personal pure pleasure...whichever season and time you turn him, he will give you true fashion, unadulterated.


Jean Paul Gaultier's Spring 2011 Collection for men excites the senses, taking inspiration from the most desired  and exotic rendezvous of men's hidden indulgence, the  hammams of the Marrakech.

Taking a cue from the Couture Maestro, Monsieur Yves Saint Laurent, Gaultier unmasks summer madness through colorful men in skimpy bikinis, flowing jalabeyas, and skirts.
Gaultier's color range from desert brown to caramel, prussian blue to magenta and black to remind us the fusion of african and arabian flavour Morroco is famous for.

The image model above typifies the arabic male, with beard and voluminous hair.
Jean Paul Gaultier's souk  salwar (sarouel) looks familiar from his  previous collections but gives a certain degree of freshness in the total collection.




Gaultier's Spring Collection sizzles and never ceased to palpate the realm of senses.
