Beehive wigs, rehab-look and the iconic makeup were included. |
For the Haute Couture S/S 2012, Jean Paul Gaultier decided to do a Amy Winehouse inspired collection. A tribute to the late singer. Fusing his satirical designs and Amy's retro style, the collection was bound to be entertaining - to me at least. The whole runway show was Amy Winehouse themed to the 'mole', literally.
As usual, on the shoe lookout! |
All outfits were envisioned to be what the Amy would wear. Interesting. Most of the photos I've seen of her look like she tumbled out of a beer keg. She did have style though, in a trashy sort of way which what this collection meant to capture!
Some criticized that the wigs took the attention away from the outfit or it was too costume-y but honestly, how would you really know it is an Amy Winehouse inspired collection without the wigs? I like it. Besides, it really plays to character.
