JEAN PAUL GAULTIER HAUTE COUTURE Ensemble de soirée «Robe-Trench» en crêpe noir, collection «Élégance Parisienne», Automne-Hiver 1998-1999 A black crepe "Robe-Trench" evening ensemble, "Parisian Elégance" collection, Autumn-Winter 1998-1999 Look no 19, labelled, the fitted halter-neck gown with double-breasted front closure panel, slanted front pocket vents, attached internal black silk and stretch-elastane long-line corset with attached pants, the low back with rear belt and buckle, long trained skirt with tab and button to back, mermaid hem, bust approx. 86cm, 34in; with matching flared short bolero-style jacket (imitating the shoulder panels of a trench-coat), with buckle side fastening to neck, tabbed épaulettes, flared sleeves with buckled bands to cuffs, lined in silk (2) It took 88 hours to make this ensemble. The trench raincoat was originally designed by Burberry and Aquascutum for officers to wear in the trenches during War World 1 - hence the name. Jean-Paul Gaultier loves 'the trench' and has included them in many guises in his ready to wear and haute couture collections over the decades and it has become a recognised part of his design vocabulary. Popularised and made timeless by fashion icons such Dietrich, Deneuve, Hepburn - for this his third haute couture collection Gaultier transforms it from a utilitarian garment to a slinky bias-cut evening gown and bolero jacket worthy of a silver screen goddess.
