Jean Paul Gaultier doesn’t miss designing clothes. The legendary couturier prefers to “do things about fashion” - such as curating exhibitions and television shows - but loves that he left making clothes behind him when he retired in January 2020.

After being asked if he missed making haute couture, the 70-year-old fashion designer told the Observer: “Oh, not at all, no!

I like to do things about fashion but I don’t want to do fittings any more. So if somebody asks me to make an exhibition about a subject like denim or corsetry, I would love to do that.

And that’s why I did the ‘Fashion Freak Show’, because I was getting to 50 years of fashion and I like to express myself about it. ” Jean Paul believes “there is a lot of beauty in difference” and this motivated him when casting runway shows.
