Going Swimmingly
JEAN PAUL GAULTIER has launched his first ever swimwear collection for La Perla. The iconic designer first teamed up with the underwear label last year, and has just unveiled his second lingerie offering.
The swimwear line comprises a host of dramatic pieces, each carrying Gaultier's bold signature message of female empowerment. The collection features more wearable styles such an orange bandeau ruched two-piece to more statement looks, including bondage-inspired swimsuits and cut-out strapless one-pieces, with daring sheer panelling. Colours come in bright oranges, khaki, black and sunny blues. Body-con mini skirts featuring lattice tie detailing are offered in the way of cover-ups.
The collection will be available from Gaultier and La Perla stores from next January. Prices start at £225.
