Jean Paul Gaultier

Jean Paul Gaultier is an inspiration for everyone who feels formal training and education is necessary to excel in any field. Sometimes all that matters is the desire to learn. Gaultier stepped into the fashion industry by impressing designers like Jean Patou and Pierre Cardin with his sketches. After working with these big designers, Gaultier decided to launch his own label. Also known as the Prince of Perversity, Gaultier's avant-garde designs quickly got him recognition world-over. He is also the man behind the famous conical bra sported by Madonna in 1990 during her Blond Ambition tour. His label offers almost everything, right from edgy street wear to classy haute couture.
