Gaultier, Jean-Paul

Article Abstract:

Gaultier is considered as the enfant terrible of the Paris fashion industry because he designs his clothing based on what he calls as 'trash.' This includes garbage and television. During a waning career in the 1990s, he based his designs on traditional dresses of Hasidic Jews and Eskimos.
