For Spring/Summer 2010 Couture, Jean Paul Gaultier treated accessories like artifacts.

The collection was layered with stacked metal cuffs, armored gladiator boots, claw-like hand pieces, heavy jewelry, embellished gloves, ornate hats, and body jewelry that felt equal parts ancient warrior and sci-fi fantasy. Even the handbags were woven and sculptural, closer to objects than traditional accessories.

Inspired by Aztec references, tribal ornamentation, and Gaultier’s signature theatrical excess, the accessories completely overtook the runway.

Gaultier has always been superior at transforming each look into something between couture and costume.⚔️

UNDERCOVER FW01 “DAVF” (Decorated Armed Voluntary Forces) by Jun Takahashi reframed military clothing as an anti-war statement.

Instead of using slogans or direct protest imagery, the collection took the attire of war and stripped it of authority.

Jackets and military-inspired pieces were reconstructed with crystals, faux jewelry, and decorative detailing that disrupted their function and symbolism.

The effect was intentional contradiction: garments associated with control and violence were turned into fragile, ornamental objects.

By transforming armor into decoration, Takahashi removed its sense of power and repositioned it as critique rather than celebration.

Presented in Tokyo in 2001, the collection is now referenced in fashion archives, including the Kyoto Costume Institute.

Set to the defiant, anti-war anthems of Bob Dylan and Bob Marley, the runway was an emotional plea disguised as high fashion.

It proved that streetwear and couture could merge to create a sensitive, anti-authority statement, cementing FW01 as one of the most culturally significant and emotionally resonant archives in fashion history.

Model Cintia Dicker walking the runway for the Luca Luca Spring 2005 collection at Olympus Fashion Week in New York City

The creative director behind this collection was Milan-born designer Luca Orlandi, who founded the luxury women’s ready-to-wear house LUCA LUCA in 1991

Luca Orlandi’s overarching philosophy for his brand was rooted in abstract painting and vivid colors. He famously noted that while a woman in a black dress might blend in, a woman embracing vibrant color leaves a lasting impression

BTS returned to the American Music Awards for the first time in five years to accept Artist of the Year wearing distressed leather outerwear by Los Angeles label .xyz

The brand’s cracked leather textures, raw hems, washed military tones, and oversized silhouettes brought a darker, underground edge to the AMAs stage closer to early 2000s avant-garde menswear than conventional award-show styling.

WarPaint XYZ later confirmed and of .bighitofficial wore the pieces while announcing an upcoming Los Angeles pop-up and June online drop!

Jean Paul Gaultier’s Fall 2004 collection, “Beauty of Disguise,” transformed the runway into something closer to surrealist theater.

The show’s most unforgettable element was the masks: full-head coverings made from pale stretch fabric, printed with surrealist faces and fitted loosely to each model’s head. Some featured exaggerated makeup prints, while others appeared almost blank. Disguising the models into anonymous mannequins suspended somewhere between human and artificial.

More than an accessory, the masks reflected one of Gaultier’s longest-running fascinations: disguise, transformation, and the idea that identity itself can be constructed through clothing.

Backstage at Balmain. Christophe Decarnin’s era, captured before the show. ⚜️

Decarnin took the creative director role at Balmain in 2005 and, within five years, transformed a quietly prestigious French house into the most talked-about name in Paris. His signature was immediate and unmistakable; razor-sharp tailoring, military-inspired silhouettes, and an obsession with embellishment that felt less like decoration and more like armor. Shoulders were impossibly sharp, trousers skin-tight, and nearly everything shimmered in gold, sequins, or metallic leather. He dressed women like rock stars who had somehow also inherited a château.

The references were always there; Bianca Jagger, Keith Richards, Paris nightlife, French New Wave - but the result was entirely his own. By the end of the decade, Balmain had become shorthand for a kind of unapologetic glamour and excess the industry hadn’t seen in years, and still hasn’t quite replicated since.

These are the images from behind the scenes: the ones that capture what it actually felt like to be in that room.

Vogue Italia, July 2008.
“The Black Issue.”

Spearheaded by Editor-in-Chief Franca Sozzani, the entire edition exclusively featured Black models, confronting the fashion industry’s lack of representation.

The “Only Girl” editorial was styled by Karl Templer, with makeup by Pat McGrath.

The issue sold out its initial 120,000-copy print run across the US, UK, and Germany in 72 hours.

Due to unprecedented demand, Condé Nast issued multiple reprints for the first time in Vogue history.

Reprinted copies were stamped “Most Wanted Issue Ever” and “First Reprint,” marking its status as a cultural landmark.
