Jean Paul Gaultier’s FW25 collection reinterprets theatricality, glamour, and grunge, transforming classics into sculptural pieces. A study in sartorial deconstruction, where every element reflects the playful and distinctive spirit of its founder.
The collection’s fil rouge is expressed through garter belts, borrowed from lingerie and transformed into decorative details. This signature motif runs across silhouettes, from mini dresses to long-sleeved tops to sweaters with batwing sleeves.
Traditional tailoring is reimagined with a feminine, contemporary perspective. Classic trousers merge with the fluidity of skirts to create unexpected hybrids, while deconstructed skirts with martingale details dismantle and recompose the codes of classic dressing.
The collection thrives on contrasts: soft fur stitch meets the structure of fisherman rib, knitwear is redefined with a modern sensibility to create movement, and oversized shirts shift into hybrids between formalwear and sportswear.
Outerwear is versatile and functional, while denim undergoes overdye treatments that enhance chromatic depth. A sophisticated palette, white and navy, dark khaki and beige, grey and brown, allows volumes and constructions to emerge.
