For the Fall 2022 show, Balmain's Olivier Rousteing took the reigns.
Jean-Paul Gaultier By Olivier Rousteing: Different Generation, Same Spirit, on M/LUX, takes you into the hustle and bustle of designing the collection and the lead-up to the runway.
Rousteing himself shows off the Jean Paul Gaultier offices, and explains his feelings about being in charge. "At first I was really impressed because there's a whole new team, new people. Obviously, Jean Paul Gauliter is about inspiration. It's an institution. It's the icon of French fashion. And now I must say we've created a great little family," he said in French.
