Cowboy JPG

We visited the Dallas Museum of Art today to see the exhibition on Jean Paul Gaultier - from sidewalk to catwalk. The show included many of the iconic sailor boys, religious madonnas, Madonna corsets with pointed bras, Mohawk tartan punks with leather jackets, and Eiffel tower decorated catwalk wear. A pretty cool feature was that the mannequins appeared to be alive through the use of video projectors displaying faces on their white heads.

Gaultier traveled to Dallas to open to show last week. He had created two modern day cowboy outfits displayed at the show's entrance. Perhaps his next collection will be inspired by Texas and Parisians will wear stetsons, big buckled belts and ostrich leather boots.
