# Aztec Couture Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2010 Line is Ancient By Luisa Amanda Gomes | Published 2010-01-29 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jean-paul-gaultier-spring-20102 References: [style](http://www.style.com/fashionshows/review/S2010CTR-JPGAULTI/) The Aztec Empire has had huge impact on the Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2010 line. The talented designer had visited Moctezuma (a famous Aztec emperor) exhibition in London and its influence is heavily shown in his latest fashions. Maintaining the spirit of the Aztec culture, his runway show featured a mariachi band as the models sauntered down the catwalk draped in South American fashions. Another neat feature on the runway were the architectural hats that were adorned with geometric designs. They would certainly make any math geek jealous.
