Jean Paul Gaultier Spring/Summer 2013 Paris

"All the pop stars of the Eighties who have influenced fashion" – and, more importantly, Gaultier's fashion. This was all about the look.
Abba, Annie Lennox, Boy George, David Bowie, George Michael, Grace Jones, Madonna, Sade, Prince, Marilyn Monroe - and the list went on.
So Karlie Kloss made for a particularly stunning Boy George, dreadlocks and all, and Jourdan Dunn a gorgeous Sade complete with slicked-back hair and hoop earrings.
There was androgynous tailoring for Lennox and there were star bodysuits for Bowie and slick black dresses for Sade and of course corsetry - lots of corsetry - for Madonna. There was also a special guest appearance from Amanda Lear - in a pink sequin body suit.
In fact, this was less a fashion show and more a concert - fashion press up and out of their seats to sing and dance along to favourite sartorial soundtracks.
"It was so fun and uplifting," summed up Vogue's Fran Burns - a perfect description of a brilliantly surprising evening.  


 AND THE BACKSTAGE, that is always fascinating!
