An asymmetric navy gabardine jumpsuit, 'Groomsman', "Les Mariées" or "61 Ways to Say Yes" collection, Spring-Summer 2015 Look no 5, labelled, sleeveless to one side with pleats forming a disappearing lapel, to the other - a single-breasted half jacket, with ruched chiffon insert to front decolleté, wide legged trousers with side slits chest approx. 92cm, 36in Most haute couture shows show a single resplendent bride as the very last look of the show, but Jean-Paul Gaultier decided to use marriage as the theme for every single look. The introduction of same sex marriages lent an elegant twist and many of the looks were superbly tailored and androgynous. Show names included "To Bi or Not to Bi", "the Bipolar Bride"; and "Bi my Baby". It seemed there was a bridal outfit for every occasion and for the final look Naomi Campbell was dressed up as a bridal bouquet, wrapped up in cellophane with strategically placed flowers and bow.

Mouna Ayoub wore this dress to attend the 66th Cannes Annual Film Festival, 19th May, 2013. This collection took as one of its themes the singer/actor Pete Doherty who starred in the movie, "Confession of a Child of the Century," Although the film was poorly received by critics, Jean-Paul Gaultier loved it. After watching a screening he declared, " My god he is so seductive, a decadent dandy - and that's my collection." The early looks in the collection are androgynous, inspired of Pete Doherty and often teamed with battered top hats but as the show progresses Jean-Paul Gaultier turns his gaze to early cinematic masterpieces such as Fritz Lang's 1927 Metropolis and used metallic and Art-Deco inspired fabrics as in this dress. Tim Blanks reporting for Vogue, July 4, 2012. "The designer also paraded silken kimono-styled eveningwear that conveyed the fin de siècle feel …The colours absinthe, coral, gold, papal purple were the colours of opium dreams…Gaultier's collections are always a love song for Paris."

It represents a crazy amount of work and unequalled expertise, with miles and miles of silk thread. "It's a miracle." Madame Ayoub said. The soutache braid is applied in varying patterns over jacket and pants and over the rear shoulders spells out the legend 'Gaultier Paris.' Although the runway models wore towering mohawk hairdos, the clothes were the utterly at odds with a rough and ready Punk aesthetic. The workmanship and tailoring has to be fully appreciated.

Vogue's Sarah Mower reported "Nobody keeps the flag of haute couture flying quite like Jean Paul Gaultier. Immaculate tailoring, aching beauty and a playful sense of the absurd - all these were whipped up into a collection that reached the wildest shores of aspirational fashion." As Jean-Paul Gaultier himself said, "My clothes are lifted from life itself ". The "Courson" (a commune in the Calvados region of France) ensemble is a perfect example of that. At first glance it appears to be a just an old pair of dungarees - just perfect for picking grapes in. The designer's cheeky sense of humour is illustrated by the inclusion of masterful trompe l'oeil pieces. Upon closer inspection, the tired-looking denim is in fact millions of coloured glass beads hand embroidered onto silk and is high luxury. The shirt worn below it is of the fines Irish crochet lace with three dimensional flowerheads and is an astonishing demonstration of the skills of his atelier.

Jean-Paul Gaultier's love of corsets is of course legendary. Mouna Ayoub also confesses that she "really loves a corset!" While some might consider the corset a symbol of female oppression, Jean-Paul Gaultier regards them as symbols of sexual freedom and empowerment. His famous muse Madonna agrees stating: "The practice is oppressive only if it is forced, and women today can choose to wear them or not; it is up to them. Plus I wore those corsets as garments - on the outside - not as underwear hidden beneath my other clothes… I think that inversion of the concept of the corset is what turns it into a symbol of feminine power and sexual freedom." 'The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier' published by Abrams, edited by Thierry Maxime Loriot, p71. Jean-Paul Gaultier in an interview with Vogue Magazine 2012 confirmed "I always saw a corset as an armour, and the women wearing it as warriors. I think women are the stronger sex, and even if they used corsets to seduce it would be on their own terms." For this ensemble Jean-Paul Gaultier eschewed the 40s pin-up style corsets he favoured in the 80s and 90s and instead chose a beautifully constructed, heavily boned 19th century inspired example, more typical of Toulouse Lautrec's Paris. The ensemble was time consuming and therefore expensive to make due to the numerous fittings required for the corset. Mr Pearl (aka Mark Pullin) is a renowned corset maker, who has also collaborated with couturiers -Thierry Mugler and John Galliano states. He describes the painstaking process: 'It takes a minimum of three fittings and about a month to make one corset, which has to be made to the specific measurements of the person who will wear it", 'The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier', published by Abrams, edited by Thierry Maxime Loriot, p156. The wide pannier-like rounded hips of the corset-basque which attach to the 'Le Smoking' overskirt and tails is also redolent of 18th century open robes. The ultra-feminity of the corset with frou-frou edging and can-can frills to the skirt lining sharply contrasts with the severe masculinity of a man's black tuxedo - the trousers with traditional side-stripes.

Jean-Paul Gaultier revealed that cinema has been a huge influence on his creative career and a constant source of inspiration. His interest range from the flickering black and white movies of the early years of cinema (which as a boy he used to watch with his grandmother) through to films of the late 20th/21st century including the memorable RTW A/W 1995-96 collection based on the 1979 "Mad Max"movie. ''Because I learned fashion from looking, I think I was more free," says Jean-Paul Gaultier. "I owe my vocation to the cinema." "Seeing Jacques Becker's film "Falbalas"(1945) was a turning point for me, as I realized that I wanted to be a couturier. Watching the fashion show at the end of the film, I just knew that presenting shows is what I wanted to do. That is why my fashion shows were always a bit cinematic" Interview with Vogue magazine, 2012. Provenance: The Mouna Ayoub Collection Image Droits Réservés

          Robe du soir en denim et plumes d'autruche,"L'Ecume des Jours", collection "Divine Jacqueline", Printemps-Eté 1999 A fine denim and ostrich feather evening gown,"L'Ecume des Jours","Divine Jacqueline" collection, Spring-Summer 1999 Look no 49, unlabelled, the denim jeans bodice with metal fly buttons to centre front, pocket vents to upper bodice sides, the jeans waistband forming the upper bodice edge with pockets applied to back, the sinuous mermaid hem dyed denim blue to white, bust 92cm, 36in, waist 66cm, 26in; with matching ivory silk and stretch lace corset (2) It took 64 hours to make this dress, excluding the lavish ostrich feather embroidery. This is the key look of the collection. During World War II, when deprivation forced people to be inventive Jean-Paul Gaultier's grandmother often recycled clothes - a pair of trousers could become a skirt. Jean-Paul Gaultier is a couturier with a punk soul. With his ironic gaze he transforms a mundane pair of jeans into a sensational evening sheath - the trained mermaid hem applied by hand with thousands of individual ostrich plumes which flutter with each movement. In the tradition of great couturiers of the Golden Age, Jean-Paul Gaultier christened each design with a unique name which often serves as an intimation of the original inspiration for the piece or can just be a reflection of his humour. Gaultier's wit and sense of irony is partly what sets his creations apart and makes them so appealing. For this work he uses the nuances of dégradé floating feather strands to simulate the foam on sea waves (maritime themes being a favourite of his) but also plays on the title of the literary work by surrealist novelist Boris Vian of the same name, published in 1947. The collection was named as a tribute to the designer Countess Jacqueline de Ribes, who was in the audience and ordered one of the pieces.

Jean-Paul Gaultier has always loved tartan. At first glance this appears to be an 'ordinary' kilt and jacket. It is only upon close inspection that the supposedly woven wool kilt is revealed to be of breathtakingly complex Maison Lesage embroidered beadwork. Weighing more than 10kg, it has beaded fringes and beautifully concealed closures with the beaded plaid pattern exactly matched. The khaki bomber jacket is shot with pink silk which changes with the light; for extra warmth it is lined in fox fur and in case gloves should be required- they are attached and cut in one with the sleeves. However, it is unlikely that anything as luxurious as this has ever been spied on the Scottish Highlands! Provenance: The Mouna Ayoub Collection Image Droits Réservés
