Description du poste

Overview

L'opportunité

Founded by its eponymous creator in 1976, Jean Paul Gaultier is a Parisian paradox—blending French style codes with iconoclastic rebellion, couture quality with urban sensibility, shock with chic.

Renowned for his daring tailoring and anti-conformist stance, the designer has forged a reputation as the “Enfant Terrible” of French fashion, a provocative and playful voice with timeless charm that continues to inspire a wide and diverse audience.
