As Paris Fashion Week swirls through the City of Light, there’s news that has the fashion world on its oh so stylish heels. “The end of an era” is how Vanessa Friedman in the New York Times described Jean Paul Gaultier’s announcement that this year’s Paris show will be his last ready-to-wear collection. Gaultier explained this change of pace in a letter to Women’s Wear Daily, “Commercial constraints, as well as the frenetic pace of collections, don’t leave any freedom, nor the necessary time to find fresh ideas and to innovate.” The designer plans to focus on his couture designs, fragrances and special creations for costumes and interiors. Indeed, it does feel like an end of an era. Read more Behind Jean Paul Gaultier’s Goodbye.
