Jean Paul Gaultier's Paris -- The Boudoir -- Skin Deep -- Urban Jungle -- Metropolis.
Summary: This title celebrates the three-decade career of Jean Paul Gaultier, who began as an assistant with no formal training and has risen to the rank of grand couturier. His risqué and often irreverent styles have earned him the designation of couture's enfant terrible. Alongside contributions from noted fashion historians, the book includes interviews with Gaultier himself, and many interesting people he has worked with, such as Mr. Pearl, Martin Margiela, Carine Roitfeld, Tom Ford, Pierre et Gilles, Boy George, Stephen Jones, and Madonna.
