Jean Paul Gaultier Taps Ludovic de Saint Sernin as Guest Couturier


Speculation has been rife within the industry (and on theFashionSpot forums) over recent weeks, surrounding Ludovic de Saint Sernin as the next guest couturier of Jean Paul Gaultier. True to the rumor mill, LdSS has indeed been handpicked by the revered French designer to design the Spring 2025 Haute Couture collection, scheduled to be unveiled in January 2025 during Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week. The Paris-based French designer, who launched his eponymous fashion label in 2017, follows in the footsteps of industry heavyweights Chitose Abe, Glenn Martens, Olivier Rousteing, Haider Ackermann, Julien Dossena, Simone Rocha, and Nicolas di Felice.

Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:

“Yikes.” [tricotineactat]

“Kind of love that these couture collabs are starting to feel like… rejects getting their day in the sun.” [blueorchid]

“Bedazzled and fringed jockstraps with feathered corsets.” [yslforever]

“Guess Jean Paul Gaultier worked with all the people he could already? I guess everyone else is on contract and can’t do it. I think Ludovic de Saint Sernin needs the taste level infusion….” [Nimsay]

“To be honest, as much as I don’t think Ludovic de Saint Sernin is interesting as a designer, it can be enjoyable. Even with a terrible collection!” [Lola701]

“I like LdSS! As long he doesn’t make a Swarovski mesh Blond Ambition corset, I’m here for it.” [ecnerretneerg]

“I don’t mind this. It’s Jean Paul Gaultier, it’s not that sacred! The brand played with pop, camp, trashy, etc so it’s a fine combo. Gives something new to Haute Couture fashion week! Better than watching Schiaparelli, Elie Saab and Christian Dior, season after season with same collection.” [PDFSD]
