Famed for his eccentric couture creations, Jean Charles de Catelbajac outs himself for Spring Summer 2011. Acting as unexpected accessories to his colorful [Pop Art prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/piaget-andy-warhol), [gold and silver watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crw001g9jr) are stacked around the neckline.

Perhaps he's always late? Drawing comparisons with the OTT excess of Mr. T, Castelbajac mixes a few Eiffel Tower souvenirs into the [layered-timepiece mix](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reine-de-naples). A Swarovski-encrusted boom box completes the aesthetic.

The epitome of Parisian kookiness? We think so!

**Implications** - Jean Charles de Castelbajac thinks that wearing ten watches -- some of them around your neck -- is a fashionable and hip aesthetic idea. I, for one, tend to agree with this cutting-edge artist. Watches everywhere, this collection by Jean Charles de Castelbajac screams.
