Jean Paul Gaultier MID LENGTH DRESSES

Jean Paul Gaultier took his seat as the enfant terrible of the fashion world with the launch of his namesake label in 1976. Gaultier was true to his inclusive, genre-defying vision from the start, emboldened by his time working under avant-garde designer Pierre Cardin, who had hired Gaultier at only 18 years old. In the half century since its launch, the influential house has delivered countless iconic designs—both ready-to-wear and haute couture—with an unmistakable aesthetic signature blending sensuality, theatricality, glamour, and grunge. From marinières and corsets to graphic mesh ensembles, Jean Paul Gaultier crafts with a singular sense of humor and finesse.
