Although I haven’t attended too many fashion shows before, I know that they have always been full of energy and surprises, yet I have to say that runways that have seen shows like the Jean Paul Gaultier A/W '10 collection are even more sensational than ever.
Perhaps it’s the Gaga effect taking over the fashion sphere, but the fact that these models have been bloodied (albeit through the magic of makeup) to further demonstrate the boxing inspiration, just proves my point. That being said, the Jean Paul Gaultier A/W '10 fashions are classically daring.
