FROM THE ARCHIVE – SELECTED LOOKS
This project forms an independent archive dedicated to documenting the complete Junior Gaultier collections from 1988 to 1995. It aims to provide a structured visual and historical reference for one of Jean Paul Gaultier’s most distinctive diffusion lines.
This archive brings together key collections, recurring themes and visual references that defined Junior Gaultier during the late 1980s and early 1990s. From deconstructed denim to theatrical tailoring, the line reflects a period of experimentation in fashion where identity, culture and design intersected in new and influential ways.
Jean Paul Gaultier’s work has been widely documented in museum collections and fashion archives such as the V&A Museum.
