For this couture season Jean Paul Gaultier delightfully chose to look backwards, to his years past in effect creating a collection that reflected all his greatest hits. They were all there- from his trench dress, conical bra and even a couple men walking down the runway in honor of his first couture collection which was in menswear. It's no surprise that he chose to reflect rather than provide a new direction, due to the fact he currently has a retrospective The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier: From Sidewalk to Catwalk at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (which is making a stop in Dallas before ending its run at the De Young in San Francisco next year) chronicling his designs from the past 35 years. However, my favorite part of the runway wasn't the fashion but rather the feathered toppers placed so gingerly atop the models heads. These birds never looked prettier. File as too fabulous.
