Exhibit opens today at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.

If you’re in Montreal at any point this summer, go see the exhibit “The Fashion World of Jean-Paul Gaultier: From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk” at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.

It runs from June 17th to October 2nd and whether you’re a fashionesta or a… ummm… regulario you’ll find it well worth the price of admission.  Not sure who he is or why he matters? If you’ve seen the Fifth Element, mimicked Madonna’s cone bra or have ever worn nautical stripes, you’ve been influenced by JPG.

Visit the MMFA website dedicated to the exhibit for video interviews with Jean-Paul Gaultier, more photos and screenings of the films and documentaries he’s worked on.
