Jean Paul Gautier works together with Y/Project on a special new collection of apparel together designed for the Fall 2022 season. The brand highlights silhouettes including suits, shirts, pants, and tees with notable looks such as the Body Morph blazer and pants to match the leading outfit.
The detailing creates a look of a muscled torso and male anatomy overall. It comes in monochromatic looks as well as a pink and green colorway option. The rest of the range is highlighted by the Body Morph pajama shirt, the breast-bearing tank tops, and the long-sleeved top -- these are perfect examples of Jean Paul Gautier's signature design language. It is then rouned out by a selection of denim looks.
