Fall Winter 2015, Jean Claude Jitrois pays tribute to Paris’ answer to the legendary Studio 54, Palace, in it’s heyday during the late 1970’s and early 1980’s. Entitled "Lucid Wonderland" the collection takes inspiration from the intoxicating world of the wild party girls who frequented The Palace; who, with their relentless charisma and impeccable looks, blurred the line between effortless glamour and the rock, punk and disco movements of the era. Looking to muses such as Amanda Lear, Jerry Hall and Grace Jones; the collection features 1970’s inspired trapeze cut dresses and mini-skirts constructed in stretch velvet and lambskin and brought to life with Pop Art inspired floral or animal leather embroidery and accented with Swarovski crystals. The 1970’s silhouette is explored further through tunics worn over flared stretch leather pants, floor length coats and signature catsuits with ultra plunging necklines.
