This menswear-in-name-only show burst with an energy, cheekiness and joy capable of sweeping away even the densest clouds of financial gloom and doom.
Men, women and children of all ages, sizes, shapes and colors skipped down the catwalk in extra-large Afro wigs and zippy zoot suits.
Straps that looked like suspenders confused about their mission in life sprouted out of trouser legs, cinching tight around the models' ankles. Others fastened snugly around the torso like parachuters' harnesses.
The children, who ranged in age from wide-eyed toddlers to skulking teens, were dressed just like the adults, some of them in snappy three-piece suits and tophats.
It was the first time Gaultier — who has mellowed since the 1990s, when he forged his reputation as the wild child of French fashion — presented a children's line, under the title Gaultier Junior.
