在時尚界,有些名字註定無法被遺忘,而 Jean Paul Gaultier 正是其中最閃耀的一位。

Jean Paul Gaultier 他是挑戰規則的叛逆者,是用服裝講故事的詩人。他讓龐克走上伸展台,讓內衣變成外穿藝術,為高訂注入街頭靈魂。他不只是「法國時尚壞男孩」,更是時尚界永遠的自由靈魂。從Madonna的錐形胸衣到擁抱多元性別與體態的設計理念,Gaultier 早在時尚多元成為主流前,就已站在潮流最前線。

即使在2020年告別高訂伸展台後,他仍以創意總監身份,邀請不同設計師接棒詮釋他的品牌宇宙,讓 Gaultier 精神持續發光。近期更是正式宣布:荷蘭設計師 Duran Lantink 將成為 Jean Paul Gaultier 品牌史上第一位永久創意總監,標誌著品牌從「輪流客座」時代邁入嶄新篇章。Lantink 以拼貼與可持續設計聞名,是極具實驗精神的接班人,勢必為 Gaultier 世界注入新能量。這位擁抱異想天開與純粹創意的傳奇設計師,剛剛迎來他的生日,在這一天,我們不只是慶祝一位設計師的誕辰,更向一個改變時尚定義的靈魂致敬。

Bon anniversaire, Jean Paul Gaultier!你的時代傳奇圓滿落幕,而你的精神,將以全新姿態持續閃耀。

I'm not a fashion addict. I just love to express myself through clothes.我不是時尚的上癮者,我只是喜歡透過衣服表達自我。

Beauty is everywhere. It is not that she is lacking to our eye, but our eyes which fail to perceive her. 美無所不在。不是美不存在於眼前,而是我們的雙眼無法察覺她的存在。

It’s not about trying to be shocking or provocative. I just want to show what I see, with honesty. 我不是為了震撼或挑釁而創作,我只是誠實地展現我所看到的世界。

I have always looked at fashion as a way to make people feel more free. 我一直把時尚看作是一種讓人更自由的方式。

Why should we define beauty by a narrow standard? Fashion should be inclusive — not exclusive. 為什麼我們要用狹隘的標準定義美?時尚應該是包容,而不是排他。

如果這東西太過時尚,對我來說就沒那麼有趣了。

我創作了許多系列,時尚體系也已經改變了,現在是時候為年輕的才華騰出空間了。

任何東西我都可以設計,除了那些令人感到沉悶的正規服裝。
