The feeling of recycled intensifies with the Jean-Paul Gaultier collection: sort of sassy, but a sass that has been done before and we know too well: shiny croc prints and buckles, ribbon-tied open-toed oxfords, neon-tights with strappy sandals:
Not terrible, no, noooo. But neither beautiful nor exciting, in my opinion. I think I’ll wait this round. Next, please!
