AW11: Gaultier Predicts Tumbling Locks, Androdgeny & Lipstick. For Men

Yes, yes you did read that post title correctly.

Paris Fashion Week's on at the moment and as is traditional it begins with menswear. I love a bit of a backstage photo, me, and always make excellent use of my WWD subscription during the many and varied seasonal global fashion extravaganzas. And I have to say, I was tickled by Jean Paul Gaultier's use of pretty boys for his AW11 show.

Fir na hEireann, come late August-slash-early-September, we mna expect you to have grown a silky mane complete with Dessie O'Malley-alike Marcel Waves and to have cultivated some well-groomed facial hair. We also anticipate that you will become fully conversant with not only Kirby grip usage, but you will be aware of the benefits of a little pink eyeshadow too.

Take particular note of yer man there bottom right, lads. Clearly, an eyebrow tidy wouldn't go amiss, either.

Lastly, I just couldn't resist this sausage-smuggling pic - hey, it's a dreary January Tuesday. We need something to smile at.

So, whaddya think ladies, will JPG's dream for modern manhood catch on in Ireland?
