Paris Fashion Week Jean Paul Gaultier gave the audience a mix of 1980s graffiti prints for F/W 2012-13 during Paris Fashion Week. The designer sent down the catwalk Fused 1980s graffiti prints with the style of cult rock band Velvet Underground in his slickly executed collection.
Looks came in multicolor surreal prints that included vintage car grilles, license plates, and street signs that spelled out "Gaultier."
Models slung brightly colored fur jackets over arms or let them fall coolly off one shoulder. Sleeves and cuffs seemed to crop up everywhere as ornamental features in skirts, furs and ruffles, or just hanging limp.
Waist length hair showed the darks roots and leather cigarette pants combined with platform and motorcycle jackets evoked a strong women.
The furs, intarsias of different colors and dissimilar lengths, were the freshest things on the runway.
Gaultier also took inspiration from masculine tailoring giving the models an androgynous look.
