DENIM JACKET WITH METAL PANELS
Junior Gaultier
1989-1993
Jean-Paul Gaultier was renowned for being influenced by British street style. However, his clothes remained out of reach of this audience due to their prohibitive cost. With the launch of Junior Gaultier in the 1980s he turned his diffusion line into the must-have label for any diehard London clubber.

METAL PLATED JACKET
Junior Gaultier
Spring Summer 1988
This denim jacket was included in the 1988 debut collection of Jean Paul Gaultier’s more affordable diffusion line, Junior Gaultier. The use of metal as a decorative motif evolved from the mainline Jean Paul Gaultier ‘Rock Stars’ collection of Autumn Winter 1987–8, which featured metal codpiece and epaulettes. The four large metal plates emphasize the cut of the denim jacket and are riveted in place, a method of fixture that Jacob W. Davis and Levi Strauss & Co. patented for denim jeans in 1873 as an ‘Improvement in Fastening Pocket-Openings’.
