Thierry Mugler: Paris Menswear 2011
Paris men’s week opened today with a relaunch of the Thierry Mugler brand. Immediately obvious from the street scene at the entrance — a horde of excited teenagers clambering to sneak in — was the fact that Paris, unlike Milan, is awash in youth culture. That energy bled onto the runway, where Nicola Formichetti, the creative director behind the relaunch, and Romain Kremer, the new designer of the men’s collection, presented their first show. Kremer is a young Parisian known for his futuristic, bright and shiny pieces, and Formichetti is a stylist renowned for his ground-breaking work with young magazines like Dazed and Confused, not to mention his collaborations with Lady Gaga. She created the music for the evening, a new song that can be heard by watching a video of the show at mugler.com. Gaga fans hungering for her latest will ensure that this collection is immediately injected into the pop culture consciousness, regardless of the clothes.
