Editor's Note
“Venus de Milo. To a child she is ugly. When a mind adjusts to thinking of her as completeness, even though, by physiologic standards, incomplete, she is beautiful.” - Charles Fort
Jean Paul Gaultier is known for his eclectic and imaginative designs, often drawing inspiration from various art forms and historical references. The Venus de Milo is an ancient Greek statue that is widely renowned for its beauty and is considered one of the masterpieces of classical sculpture. Jean Paul Gaultier’s Venus de Milo print has gained cultural significance and has become iconic due to its impact on the fashion industry and popular culture; it demonstrates the perfect fusion of fashion and art as placement of the body of the statue is placed just below the neckline which gives a Trompe L’Oeil effect, perceiving the wearer become the work of art.
The Venus de Milo print has been seen on Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner.
