I don't do feature about designers often but this week as brought a news that I believe fits here among my ramblings and opinions.
From this vogue article |
In the wake of all the fashion weeks, it becomes obvious (and it's been pointed out by several media outlets (that this blog surely ain't)) that there is a morosity to the current offering. There is little innovations seen on the runways and even less in stores. The fast pace of it is often pointed out for this and it's slowly getting to every brands, Jean-Paul Gaultier being the first big one to act on it.
As a big supporter of slow fashion, high quality and innovation, I can only applaud such a decision that will surely inspire more to recenter their brands and focus.
Merci Monsieur Gaultier.
