‘The Shock of the Way’ — Jean Paul Gaultier Quote Tee | RQuéV Black-on-White Statement Shirt — Oversized Tee

“The shock of the way I mix patterns and fabrics can be disconcerting, but what I am trying to do is provoke new ideas about how pieces can be put together in different ways.” Jean Paul Gaultier built his method through the 1980s by collision: Breton stripes slammed against tulle, leather laid over lace, tartan spliced with chiffon. The shock was a tool, meant to pry open combinations the eye had ruled out. Creativity, in his hands, is mostly the nerve to put two things side by side that everyone agreed should stay apart.

**AS Colour 5082 “Faded Bone” — Oversized Tee (Cream finish).** 100% carded cotton, heavyweight 240 gsm, garment-dyed — each tee fades a little differently, so no two are identical. Oversized, boxy relaxed fit, dropped shoulders, wide twin-stitched ribbed neck, side-seamed, pre-shrunk (size down for a less roomy look). Care: machine wash cold inside-out with like colors, do NOT bleach, do NOT tumble dry (line dry in the shade to protect the garment dye), cool iron inside-out (never iron the print).
