Jeremy Scott gets all of the love, but without Jean-Charles de Castelbajac I’m betting there would be no Jeremy Scott as we know him today. Though JC/DC doesn’t often get all the credit he deserves, he has influenced countless designers with his quirky tongue-in-cheek, provocatively original designs. His shows are always more fun and upbeat than the other major Paris shows, and the crowd is usually smiling – and oftentimes even bopping to the music.
A number of the looks had a nurse-like feel especially given the knee-highs and the petite hats worn by the models, while some of the other looks which were more structured with chain embellishments seemed to have a military-inspiration behind them (the designer has been known to make political commentaries through his fashions). Others, with their parrot prints, red colors, leaf-accents, and eye patches, were clearly pirate-inspired.
