Why Jean Paul Gaultier is one of Fashions Biggest Icons

[@paulcondemine459]

JPG is probably the most famous fashion designer in France, everyone know his name and what he stand for. I remember as a child I saw him very often on french TV, even my grandparents who are part of the french working and peasant class knew his name and bought his perfumes. As a young queer kid who loved fashion he was my role model and still to this day is my favorite fashion designer.

[@jromeo8247]

What a great video. Thank you❤

[@doedelbroesel3239]

…living. I am sure the most living famous designer in France. There is Chanel, Dior, Saint Laurent…

as a french person, jean paul gaultier is the definition of france, it’s the only person that makes me patriotic. He’s funny, camp, honest, proud of his country, insanely talented, boundaries pushing and just represent the purest lifestyle of the nightlife of paris pigalle and stuff. He’s like a parisian small local celebrity even though he is known worldwide

[@OniPutItOn]

What does camp mean?

[@jonathanvitesse9471]

@@OniPutItOn it's basically a style or subculture that comes from the lgbtq community, exagerated, ironic, over the top and grotesque, think drag queens, mugler, viktor and rolf, jeremy scott, etc

I love how genuine and authentic this channel is.

[@haventseenhim]

margiela x gaultier is such a cool combo. margiela is so refined and intricate, while gaultier is camp and innovative. its such an amazing contrast to see the two work both together and succeed each other to watch how each one of their shoes compares to the last. i feel like every designer is a margiela or a gaultier. or maybe a mix of both 🤷🏿‍♂️

[@pablojavieralfaro8999]

. Jean-Paul Gaultier is such an incredible designer and persona. He has created a whole universe. Other designers have done so but the difference with Gaultier is that you don't need to buy his clothes in order to get the look/vibe of his fashion. Gaultier has always been ahead of his time and sometimes I feel he has done much more for menswear than womenswear. There's something else: Gaultier has never been snob. He constantly shows himself in a very relaxed way and seems to be a very approachable man. I'd also like to mention some few facts: he has a terrific sense of humour and never took himself and the world of fashion as something sacred and/or important. His art is pure democracy. PD: Gaultier didn't meet Madonna for the first time in Paris. They met each other at the MTV Video Music Awards.

My favorite youtuber talking about my favorite designer while I eat cereal this is perfect.

Funny, I just received the vintage JPG cyber multi zip bag I ordered today in the mail. When I opened it I couldn’t help but smile. It was expensive, but worth every single penny.

[@understitchYT]

THAT GREENSCREEN IS SO PRECISE, Im literally so in awe that youve got no green or blue in your hair. Love the video too, but wow, that really impressed me

[@Devananta-Rafiq]

He has one of the best career for any contemporary designer. Really admirable.

[@skyblueo]

I was lucky enough to see his retrospective show at the Brooklyn Museum. His wide-ranging expression is just amazing.

[@Oscar-gp8em]

There are a lot of fashion critique shows on KZbin done by young bucks. Yours is actually VERY WELL DONE! Bravo!

[@dimlight.]

Was shaking, screaming, crying and throwing up waiting for the next fashionlover4 video

[@leoperegrino]

I am so grateful for all the magnficient work he has done, he is a brilliant mind, an artist

[@doedelbroesel3239]

I have to say, being a fashion designer myself and been to two prestigious schools, every time i designed and, of course, naively wanted to reinvent the wheel, i first looked at JPG archives, BECAUSE HE REALLY DID EVERYTHING ALREADY AT ONE POINT IN HIS CARRIER

[@jade5822]

This video premiered just as I was about to research JPG💙💙💙

Babe wake up the legend fashionlover4 uploaded

[@cybrself]

I think you would find the story of Rudi Gernreich very interesting. He had the same “nothing is taboo” attitude as Gaultier and space-age influence, but two decades earlier. Gernreich pioneered much of modern design half a century before it would be wholly accepted into the fashion lexicon.

Thank you so much for this amzing video! Really fell in love with JPG now haha

[@faridahmohamedismailbinmar5733]

Faryn Eddie loves John Paul Gaultier designs and Piere Cardin since early eighties and grew up fashion designs since a little girl and always designs own clothes

[@papyrus1113]

Where do you find high quality pictures of old fashion runways, like the ones at 9:34 or the ones at 10:00? I'm building a fashion archive at the moment, and I'm having such a hard time finding high-res pictures like the ones that you showed.

[@mattmcjagger2582]

JPG, Mugler, Diesel and Margiela are back popular due to this resurgence of Y2K, Rave/ Grunge culture along with this futuristic minimalism era.

[@layditms2]

[@akaelalias4478]

Great video, very well produced

[@jakecavendish3470]

He gave me some fashion advice once. I said, "Jean, what should my wardrobe staples be?" And he said "A chunky mule, a vibrant sports bra, chiffon hats, a tweed sock and a velvet belt."

[@bruceswinford4901]

JPGs stuff is so diverse, even his more conservative menswear and sport pieces have a really distinct look. It's a shame these pieces are so difficult to find nowadays because in many ways I prefer them over his more eye catching designs.

[@derrickturner2157]

Martin Margiela n Jean Paul Gaultier work together in the lates 80s n early 90s. So say who stole what n did it first is not true because Martin Margiela was work with him on those collections in that time. But great episode as always.

[@SoundBlackRecordings]

I met him in Berghain once and he was so nice.

Nice vid, didn’t know all that about JPG! Where is the ozwald boateng video?

[@felicityhart20]

i love gaultier, but we need to stop saying designers are 'truly diverse' and show 'models of all sizes' when they are only more diverse than the standard in runway. In this entire video and every gaultier show I have ever watched, I've never seen a plus size model. The closest are thin pregnant women, which is not the same (different design considerations). I haven't seen every show, so there probably are a few. But I think we can safely say that he did not factually show models of all sizes, because then there would be an equal percentage of larger and smaller in an overview of his work. And there isn't. If there are, they are a considerable minority and we shouldn't be giving designers all this credit for not actually being diverse. It doesn't take away from the work he's done in hiring models of diverse skintones and a curvier than usual frame, but there are factually NOT models of all sizes represented in his work.

[@impopquiz]

Beth Ditto and Crystal Renn. That said, not everything has to have a certain %. It’s exhausting. The fact that he had them and even people from the streets as models was already a pioneering move back in the day.

[@jakecavendish3470]

I'm not sure Gaultier is famous for his love of diversity 😬

[@ariesmry]

Whats bizarre is older people gatekeeping someone's legacy and getting upset when younger people take an interest in the history or influential people in a field. His work can still be "new" to someone and people can appreciate it even if they weren't born in that era.
