JEAN PAUL GAULTIER HAUTE COUTURE Ensemble du soir orientalisant en tulle orné d'argent "Apsara", collection "Inde romantique'", Spring-Summer 2000 An orientalist silver embellished tulle evening ensemble "Apsara", "Romantic India" collection, Spring-Summer 2000 Look no 37, labelled, comprising: nude stretch-tulle body embellished with Indian silvered paillettes forming a necklace-like band, together with a pair of black silk crepe culottes, the sides attached to long trained and weighted hem; the matching jewellery comprising two beaten silver armlets; six bracelets in three patterns and a choker necklace with lobed quatrefoil repeats, bust approx. 86cm, 34in, waist 71cm, 28in (11) It took 60 hours to make this ensemble excluding the embroidery. Jean-Paul Gaultier repeatedly demonstrated his fascination with India's culture throughout his career. Apsaras are celestial beings in Hindu and Buddhist cultures, Beautiful, youthful and elegant, they are said to be able to change their shape at will so that literally anyone will fall for their beauty. This was one of the most lavish looks in the "Romantic India" collection. Jean-Paul Gaultier's models wore turbans, sari inspired chiffons sashes and (as in this case) multiple silver choker, bangles and armlets of varying textures and patterns. The bodice is covered in shimmering silvered metal paillettes and beads. Provenance: The Mouna Ayoub Collection Image Droits Réservés
