The Jean Paul Gaultier show during Haute Couture Week is highly anticipated, especially since the designer’s retirement as Creative Director of his eponymous label. To continue the legacy, Gaultier decided to invite different prominent names from the couture world to design the collections.

Now, we have enjoyed the reinterpretations of the 'enfant terrible' of French fashion through the eyes of designers such as Haider Ackermann and Olivier Rousteing (Creative Director of Balmain) for the Haute Couture collections —the only collections Gaultier currently presents. The latest show featured Julien Dossena, the current Creative Director of Rabanne, who brought back the corset, a signature element of Gaultier’s designs, as the central theme of the collection.

Different Latin stars gathered in Paris to accompany Jean Paul Gaultier in this presentation. Camila Cabello wore a tight corseted dress with a multicolored animal print with a high neck and long sleeves that she wore with a simple up-do and makeup.

Tokischa paid homage to the ‘City of Light’ with an avant-garde beret that she wore with a bustier in beige and black tones with denim pant. The Brazilian content creator Camila Coelho opted for a midi-cut pencil skirt with metallic and shiny applications reminiscent of those textures from the house of Rabanne. She wore a bright crop top to finish the look.

Jean Paul Gaultier is a self-confessed lover of Latin American cultures, so the Latino presence in his shows is not surprising.

“When people have good energy, I feel it. And in general I feel that people like me, and that makes me very happy” -Jean Paul Gaultier
