Jean-Paul Gaultier et les Cerises de Juilllet

Last Friday I sailed through the Jean-Paul Gaultier exhibit at Grand Palais

If you were in Paris this Spring and missed this get right back on the plane and come back. You have till 3 August.

Sailed is the right word. Attendants were paying homage to J-P wearing their navy marinere T-shirts.

More blues in the multi-media show room

On to the full fashion runway show with revolving models

And the requisite star-filled audience sitting in the little gold chairs.

Gaultier's Urban Jungle looks

Patterned and deeply sensuous

Talking sensuous, no one does wild crazy lingerie better than Gaultier.

Fabulous photos are integrated into this retrospective of his fashions covering 1976 through 2014.

A corseted Marie-Antoinette bien sur..

To the ultimate in sexy corsets

J-P's costumes for Madonna hold the spotlight

These two were well-paired off

Gaultier's signature parfums

Mirror his iconic cone bras.

Sunday at the marche Bastille when I saw these same cones

There was no stopping me.

I had to have this cherry-red zipper bag.

July is cherry month in Paris and at PB headquarters. Eat as many as possible while they last.
