According to WWD, Jean-Paul Gaultier will cease his women’s and men’s ready-to-wear collections and accessories lines. The designer wants to focus his time on his couture line, the brand’s fragrances and other projects.

For some time, I have found true fulfillment in working on the haute couture and it allows me to express my creativity and my taste for research and experimentation. At the same time the world of ready-to-wear has evolved considerably. Commercial constraints, as well as the frenetic pace of collections don’t leave any freedom, nor the necessary time to find fresh ideas and to innovate. This is a new beginning, I will be able to express again my creativity fully and without constraints” – said Jean-Paul Gaultier
