If JPG were a concert, this would be the cheap merch you’d buy outside the gates.

Very dumb collection, the hair bodysuits are such a cheap rage-baity tactic but in Lulu’s place I would sue.

The rest doesn’t even offend me, these are the tepid leftovers that belong in the CSM graduate show in London. But showing it in Paris? There are hardly any real clothes to speak of if you take away all the Lycra.

Me thinks Puig will intervene if it gets really bad, can you imagine the perfume adds with the models wearing this?

I liked it, as a fashion fun show, jpg ideas turn up side down. Nothing real here. The models looked like they're great grandchildren of people of the early nineties and late eighties who walks for show. A new generation.
Is this gonna be a seasonal position or is this guy there permanently? He need to make real clothing for the next collection

 

[fenty]

And I’m already seeing industry people raving about it. Go to hell.

Industry is full of boot lickers. not receiving next season's invite to JPG will not kill you babe 😩

 

[Alquimista]

Poor Lulu. This look will haunt her forever.

He could at least made a fun show. These are not conceptual clothes, they're just pathetic irreverent .

 

[Armani]

What disrespect. Blasphemous collection.

I'd actually have liked it if LDSS' Ann Demeulemeester collection was this one lol

 

[Monsieur Cristobal]

In your opinion, who was the main influence on this collection?

1) Jean-Charles de Castelbajac
2) Vetements x Niki de Saint-Phalle
3) Calzedonia
4) Pierre Cardin
5) Jean Paul Gaultier

I say number two.

did duran lantink not realize he was making a show for gaultier and not his own brand? this is an abomination, im disturbed.

 

[Cocteau Stone]

I just don’t see this as necessary. There’s some okay pieces, some interesting ideas that are very JPG in spirit but it also wasn’t needed. Gaultier RTW in all honesty just seems pointless because at large no one entirely cares except for the go to “classiques” of the brand.

I don’t see why Duran had to go to JPG and make the same thing they already do as well. I’d rather just see what they can do for couture and call it a day. Was this all really worth reopening the RTW division? It’s not horrible, there’s been worse. But there’s also better. And there’s collections that didn’t really need to happen because no one really asked for this nor does it contribute much too.

It´s literally one of his collections (naked men print included) with the JPG label sewn into the clothes. Laziness epic level!

Can’t remember a fashion show pissing me off like this did. Genuinely embarrassing and downright insulting to JPG’s legacy.

And I’m already seeing industry people raving about it. Go to hell.

I mean…JPG himself was happy. He cried. And it was tears of joy…

Aw, surely it was because he knew he had a flight to Mykonos that evening!

 

[woemwoem]

That outfit Lulu wore is completely awful and completely hilarious. I don't know what woman would wear it except as a gag or Halloween costume.

 

[Delleone]

I couldn’t turn away, transfixed. Fashion knickers in a twist galore! Giggles.

The thing is that we are arguably seeing the influence of Lantink permeate quite a few collections this season: inflated, curvilinear forms (Stella look 15?); abbreviated graphic shapes; an offbeat, discordant approach to show music — see Loewe. Although that might be down to Jodie Barnes who styled both collections.

He did rewrite the rule book to some extent last season so let’s see how this plays out. I need time. Dare I say, the Lantink Stink does make you think? Too soon?

 

[Kanzai]

Just want to drop this masterpiece here.

This could have been a collab and it would have been fine.
I still don't get this appointment. What is his mission exactly?
Clearly it's not to make sellable clothes.
