On December 08, 2009 Marie Christiane Marek hosted “The Designers’ Christmas Trees” at the Cité de l’architecture et du patrimoine in Paris.
World-famous designers have sold 20 Christmas trees for a total of 41,500 € to be donated to The Foundation headed by France’s First Lady Carla Bruni-Sarkozy.
Since 1996 several famous names have taken part, including Stella McCartney, Jean Paul Gaultier and Marc Jacobs.
Fans of Jean Paul Gaultier’s iconic “Le Male” fragrance now have a USB key that gently emits the fragrance as they work.
The USBs are free with any purchase of a 75ml or 125ml bottle of “Le Male” fragrance at selected Boots stores or on Boots.com for the next month.
Could fashion designer Jean Paul Gaultier be out at Hermès?
Fashion Week Daily reports that the designer may be resigning from the company after the Paris show in October.
In addition to producing his eponymous collections of ready-to-wear and haute couture, Gaultier has spent the last six years as Hermès’ creative director.
Are you thirsty just looking this stunning bottle of water?
You’re right because new Evian Haute Couture Bubble Bottle, dressed by internationally acclaimed French designer Jean Paul Gaultier, is really sublime!
But catching one of these objet d’art may be more difficult because only 5 five unique and exclusive bottles for 2009 have been created worldwide.
While the Chanel couture collection was inspired by paper, it was calligraphy that inspired the new Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2009 Haute Couture collection.
Set to a huge screen with calligraphy images in motion, Gaultier introduced his dreamy couture creations that featured see-through fabrics, fishnets, embroideries, and high-waisted skirts and pants that illustrated the mastery of his craftsmanship.
Lace and embroidery were just some of the exclusive, meticulous details which came in black and white, like ink on paper.
Trousers turned into corsets, and silhouettes took on an 80s look with dresses, some of which were inspired by swimsuits.
