For the Belgian designer, receiving the invitation to design the latest Haute Couture collection for the prestigious French House was much more than just an honour; it was a dream come true.
Imagine an aimless ship, lost in the middle of an ocean where passion is the only compass. On it, an eclectic group of travellers, stripped of the need for a star to guide them, but possessed by a burning desire for freedom. This is the image that Ludovic de Saint Sernin evokes for Jean Paul Gaultier. A narrative and aesthetic universe where the wandering souls of the Maison‘s heroes and heroines mingle with the boldness and irreverence of the designer, giving life to a collection that is as raw as it is exquisitely refined.
From the very first moment, the Ludovic‘s creative instinct soon set the tone for the proposal. It wasn’t just about making clothes; it was about creating characters that, with every detail, embodied the JPG characters, transforming them into contemporary, visceral and energetic beings. And he has succeeded.
Each garment, each silhouette, exudes that characteristic savoir-faire that is achieved at 325 rue Saint Martin in Paris: the most refined craftsmanship, asymmetrical structures, pieces that play with the ambiguity of gender, the daring use of corsetry? All through the filter of Saint Sernin, who manages to turn all these elements into something even more palpable. His approach to sensuality delves into the chaos of Jean Paul Gaultier and transcends it, offering a new perspective on opulence and extravagance.
