i love haute couture seasons. i love how the runway shows are filled with stare-worthy clothes and of course, i find too many enviable clothes to drool at. just like this 2010 couture collection by jp gaultier:
i could instantly read that either pirates, gladiators, or amazon warriors may be his sources of inspiration the first time i watched the show on ftv. i didn't know anything about the trueness of the fact until i read in style.com that gaultier had just visited an exhibition about monteczuma, the emperor of aztec, last year in london, and that was the reason why he had steered the collection into the eco-tribal direction.
here are my favorites, the armored dresses:
although i'm not that convinced that women (even those of rabid fashion-worshippers type) would really wear them on the streets or to parties, i still have to admit that those dresses are sick cool. just... insane. well, on second thought, they'd (me, too) perhaps wouldn't mind raiding the one worn by anja rubik:
because, well, it is just too beautiful, of course!
my favorite karlie kloss closed the show, too:
the fan could actually make sound everytime it is being waved. karlie waved it several times so show the effects of the fan to the audience.
right after her, there was also the iconic arielle dombasle lip-synched to a song. that was right before she appeared with gaultier on the stage, sealed the whole show.
