The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier:
From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk
The Brooklyn Museum
There are no words to describe how truly incredible these pieces are in person!! Viewing this exhibit while in the midst of my Sew Sexy-Sewalong mindset made me view many things in a completetly different way. And my recent fabric shopping trip (OMG, so much fun chatting and shopping with these three ladies!!) was certainly influenced by it (leather, metallic, print).
Even as I viewed the pieces and snapped these photos, I sensed a theme. I am, clearly, most drawn to the waistline and garments that highlight it. That nipped-in-ness is sexy to me. Whether it is on a metallic leather corset (my FAVORITE PIECE) or a striped, backless tshirt with a floor length train.
Watch the waist.

Looks awesome, I love JPG. He also just seems like such a fun person, other than the beautiful pieces.
A.) These pics are too awesome. B.) I just meandered over to the Brooklyn Museum website to see their hours, and OMG, THE EXHIBIT IS OVER?!?!?! Color me heartbroken!
I’m going to have to make that gold corset in the top couple of pics now…
