]]> In January 2022, Jean Paul Gaultier paired with designer and Y/Project Creative Director Glenn Martens on a Haute Couture collection, but little did we know just how popular this collaboration would become. The re-imagination of Jean Paul Gaultier’s famous ‘naked’ prints took over the industry, everybody was talking about them and, more importantly, everybody was wearing them. 

So, it is no surprise that after the success of the first collection, Jean Paul Gaultier and Y/Project have come back with a second collaboration. While the first collection was Haute Couture, this collaboration is a Ready-to-Wear collection inspired by the Parisian fashion house’s iconic trompe l’œil prints. The collection features an array of fun designs that also play with ‘fake’ photo prints, this time opting for pieces that depict other designs or clothing items on them. These include skirts with jeans printed on them, tops that look like jackets and dresses that appear as a completely different outfit. 

With another collection that is grounded in optical illusion, we are predicting that this collaboration is going to be just as popular as the last, so here are our stand-out pieces.

The Trompe L’œil Y Belt T-shirt

‘The trompe l’œil Y Belt T-shirt’ would be a great statement graphic-tee to incorporate into your wardrobe, especially if you wanted a graphic-tee that wasn’t heavy on text or logos.  The piece is playful and visually interesting and could be styled in so many fun ways, especially when you consider pairing it with pieces that juxtapose the denim print.

The Blue Trompe- L’œil Janty Mini Skirt

‘The Blue trompe- l’œil Janty mini skirt’ is the perfect party-piece and it is unapologetically Jean Paul Gaultier. You see this skirt, and you instantly know who it is by. But again, it makes such a statement without relying on any logos, which is something that we are seeing designer brands make a swift move away from. 

The Burgundy Trompe- L’œil Lingerie Tank Top

Finally, ‘The Burgundy trompe- l’œil lingerie Tank top’ would be the ultimate investment from this collection. A tank top is already such a versatile piece that can be worn in so many different ways but when combined with this design and the more muted colour-palette, the potential that this piece offers is endless. You could use it to re-invigorate a basic outfit, you could create an interesting take on the underwear-as-outerwear trend with it or you could even play with the layering aspect of the design by layering the tank top itself. The possibilities are honestly endless.

The collection was released on Friday March 17th and is available to shop at both Jean Paul Gaultier and Y/Project.
