Autumn Winter 1992 Jean Paul Gaultier ‘Faces’ Jacquard Weave Silk Shirt

(FOR SALE) An Autumn Winter 1992 Jean Paul Gaultier ‘Faces’ Jacquard Woven Silk Button Down Shirt. 

Jean Paul Gaultier is a French designer who has rewrote the industry rules since inception in 1976. Founding his menswear label years later in 1984, the artisan was instantly plagued as “l’enfant terrible” for his outlandish, inexcusable designs. Consciously reconstructing our vision of beauty, he experimented without remorse, pulling from the likes of taboo niches. Utilizing rebellious textiles, Gaultier conveyed his message through inventive mediums, popularizing the mesh full print silhouette. He stomped on guidelines in pursuit of creative expression and was successful in doing so, hailed as a fashion forefather and true Magnus opus in his field.

This beautiful silk button down shirt uses a jacquard woven technique, meaning that the design is woven into the shirt, rather than printed overtop. This design is much more difficult to implement and has a greater lifespan than a print that would rub off over time. Featuring a crowd of faces onlooking in the distance, this shirt is suitable for a size medium and is in great overall condition. Here is the opportunity to purchase a massive Jean Paul Gaultier grail that’s become increasingly hard to find as the years go on.
