Following a series of innovative collaborations with guest designers, the Jean Paul Gaultier fashion house has embarked on a transformative journey by appointing Duran Lantink as its new creative director.
His developmental trajectory challenges conventional industry norms and often interrogates the exclusionary paradigms prevalent in the fashion realm. Lantink’s forthcoming FW25 collection has generated significant buzz, showcasing imaginative pieces such as animal print flared trousers, reimagined Barbour jackets, and elastic prosthetic breasts. His inaugural ready-to-wear collection is set to debut in Paris during the RTW women’s fashion week in September, with his first Haute-Couture collection scheduled for January 2026.
