Am I missing anything? Sure I do!  The strong usage of Palms of Jungles. Maori from New Zealand. The incredible technique of weaving the palms that is only possible by Tribal! I bet Gautier had hired some serious natives out of jungles to come and weave all those dresses and sombrero up. And what else, I even see Pyrites. You know what I mean.

Genius work of Gautier. The best part is Gautier Mixed and Twisted the part “Culture” and the part “Materials”.  Let’s start!

Mariachi meets Native American Indian. Genius use of white silk along the sleeve as feather like as how Native Indians would wear.

All she needed was a rose in her mouth. Mexican Hammock and Spanish Flamenco meets here. Even bit of Pyrite attitude.

Very Gautier way to cut the suit. Mannish Sexiness. Sombrero re born in Gautier’s hands.

Masai’s Hair braiding. She’s fearless. Basket weaving of Maori of Jungle. And Part Naomi Campbell. I would buy this one.

This one even has bit of 70’s Shanghai appeal. The printed floral but again twisted by Mariachi pants cut. Frog button closure . Tunic jacket really sets the Shanghai mood.

This is very core to Mexico. The painted table cloth stripe!

Here comes Masai wearing Mad Max Indonesian Goddess dress. Awesome!!!!! I would like to own this one too. The whole mad max pieces included. Need 10 more inches of leg.

Unbelievable  work of basket weaving. Ombre!

Airy and sweet Masai.

Native American Indian vibe amazing basket weave blazer and Shanghai Spanish wrap skirt. Masai hair.

Mexican hammock meets Native American Indian weaving fringe dress.

Amazing American Indian Fringes and Indonesian beads all over her.

Leather basket weave fringe dress. Simply Stunning! I would like to have this too!

Ombre knife pleats works as Native American Indian feathers!

Mad Max, Madonna, Mexican needle crochet work. If I can choose only one , This is my dress!

Spanish line meets Sombrero and enchanting Aztec symbols.

Masai Goddess.

Palms and his Corset. This is drop dead gorgeous. You have to see how everything moves when the model walks down the runway!

My Sincere standing ovation to you, Mr. Gautier!
