Jean Paul Gaultier- Stripes
12.11.06 (9:29 pm) [edit]

This is certainly not the sort of outfit just any woman can pull off. Most women would look like a court jester in it. But those rare few who know how to make this outfit work would REALLY rock it.
It's not a tame outfit with its drab knitted stripes. There is at the same time a playfulness and a desperation to it. The kind of woman who wears this is not looking to blend in. Instead, she's begging for people to notice her, and she draws them in with the many layers of color.
For 99.99999% of women, it's just too busy. Either piece would work well if it was paired with a solid color. Perhaps an off-white cashmere sweater for a different top, or a pair of black leggings for an alternative bottom.
