Jean Paul Gaultier

La Perla is a luxurious lingerie brand which continues to collaborate with Jean Paul Gaultier year after year. JPG is an awesome underwear designer and if you've ever coveted Milla Jovovich's costumes from the film The Fifth Element then this is your year.

The Marin range in the Gaultier collection at La Perla is very similar and also comes is a range of colours....

JP Gaultier is probably most famous for his design of that cone bra which was based on an antique breastplate worn by Italian soldiers and is very similar to 1950s bullet bras.

Unfortunately if you're looking for your own pair to give you that 50s silhouette, it was part of his collection a couple of years ago. Luckily for me I was Lingerie shopping in Paris at the time and managed to bag myself one. I'll tell you more about that trip later.
