The World of Jean Paul Gaultier

Fashion aficionados can make a beeline to (not an Orchard Road boutique but) Asian Civilisation Musuem at Empress Place. Why? It's because an exhibition entitled The World of Jean Paul Gaultier (part of Singapore's Fashion Festival 2002) is currently being held there.

To get everyone in the mood, the ushers will help all visitors put on white gowns. The visitors can then add on neon-coloured accessories (funky glasses, anyone?) to make their individual fashion statements. Upon entering the exhibition, visitors get to walk through galleries where JPG gowns are put on display like art pieces -- you can take a peek into the world of the French designer and see how feathers, leather, silk, denim, sequins and other materials are put to creative use.

There are also video clips of models walking down runways in JPG garb. And you could be just like one of them models! The highlight of the exhibition is a chance to have your picture taken of your transformed self -- thanks to some innovative photography and lighting.

The exhibition is ongoing at the Asian Civilisation Museum (Empress Place) from March 20 to April 3, 11am to 6pm daily.
