Is Jean Paul Gaultier French?
Yes, Jean Paul Gaultier is French. He was born in Arcueil, a suburb of Paris, in 1952. He didn't have a formal fashion education, but he loved to sketch and was drawn to clothing, citing the corsets in his maternal grandmother's closet as having a formative impact on his creative direction. Gaultier founded his luxury fashion house in 1982 and unveiled his first collection in 1984. On 1stDibs, find a diverse assortment of Jean Paul Gaultier apparel and accessories.
