Jean Paul Gaultier has an amazing legacy. L'Enfant terrible has certainly made his mark on the industry and even beyond. (Even non-fashion fans know he created Madonna's infamous cone bra.) Lately Gaultier has been handing off the haute couture reins to a series of rising designers, like Simone Rocha, Haider Ackermann and Glenn Martens. Now you can add another name to that impressive list.
Courrèges designer Nicolas Di Felice will serve as the next guest courtier for Gaultier. Di Felice only took over Courrèges in 2020, but he's definitely brought the brand to a new level of recognition. It'll be interesting to see how he melds his own style with Gaultier's quirky yet edgy persona.
We won't have to wait long, though. Di Felice will present the collaboration at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week this summer.
