Jean Paul Gaultier: “I see in him the energy, audacity, and playful spirit through fashion that I had at the beginning of my own journey: the new « enfant terrible » of fashion. Welcome, Duran.”
Duran Lantink: "I consider Jean Paul Gaultier a genius and part of a generation that kicked down doors, so people like us can walk through them freely and be who we are without apology. Stepping into the role of Creative Director is a true honor. To me, Gaultier represents the ultimate house of creative spirit and savoir-faire. It's provocative, and continuously pushing boundaries. It's the brand that brings together different disciplines around fashion to create cultural movements, changing the language of clothes and how we wear them in the streets.”
