Reviews/Fashion;A Troika of Continental Daring Yves Saint Laurent and Jean-Paul Gaultier, the two greatest designers to emerge in 30 years, sum up the totality of French fashion: Saint Laurent the naive, isolated creator; Gaultier the knowing social critic. Their clothes say everything about French society in their time, in the same way the style of the great Roman designer Valentino speaks profoundly of society in Italy. Gaultier is king of French pop culture, the centrifuge of every scene in Paris -- clubs, music, fashion and art. If there is a place where what is wired in France crosses, it is here, where getting shocked is just part of the price for being plugged in. But Gaultier today delivered his biggest shock of all, with a subdued show (by his standards) that was more of a statement about what is happening culturally than any of his reference-packed shows of the past. The clue was on the chairs when the audience entered the show: anti-nuclear pamphlets and recruiting information for Greenpeace, materials that Gaultier had approved for distribution. By Amy M. Spindler

Spindler Oct. 15, 1996 13. [Reviews/Fashion;Givenchy in the Galliano Era: Clean Looks, Few Surprises](https://www.nytimes.com/1996/03/18/style/reviews-fashion-givenchy-in-the-galliano-era-clean-looks-few-surprises.html) The scene here is not unlike the pivotal one in adventure movies when the heroine is woozy because she's been drugged or is succumbing to hypothermia and needs to be manhandled. The hero grabs her, shakes her, and then walks her around the room saying: "Stay awake, sweetie. Everything will be fine if you can just stay on your feet a few more minutes." The plot twist in Paris is that the heroines, the established haute-couture houses, are not ingenues -- many are pushing 40. And the young men fighting to rescue them aren't out of central casting, either. Unlike in the era when Hubert de Givenchy first donned his white smock, there are no stock answers today to questions like "What does a couturier look like?" and "What should a couture house produce?" By Amy M. Spindler March 18, 1996 14. [Reviews/Fashion;A Troika of Continental Daring](https://www.nytimes.com/1995/10/19/style/reviews-fashion-a-troika-of-continental-daring.html) Yves Saint Laurent and Jean-Paul Gaultier, the two greatest designers to emerge in 30 years, sum up the totality of French fashion: Saint Laurent the naive, isolated creator; Gaultier the knowing social critic. Their clothes say everything about French society in their time, in the same way the style of the great Roman designer Valentino speaks profoundly of society in Italy. Gaultier is king of French pop culture, the centrifuge of every scene in Paris -- clubs, music, fashion and art. If there is a place where what is wired in France crosses, it is here, where getting shocked is just part of the price for being plugged in. But Gaultier today delivered his biggest shock of all, with a subdued show (by his standards) that was more of a statement about what is happening culturally than any of his reference-packed shows of the past. The clue was on the chairs when the audience entered the show: anti-nuclear pamphlets and recruiting information for Greenpeace, materials that Gaultier had approved for distribution. By Amy M. Spindler Oct. 19, 1995 15. [Patterns](https://www.nytimes.com/1995/10/10/style/patterns-191995.html) Valentino Expansion The marketing marriage of Sharon Stone and Valentino that began two years ago seems to have marked the beginning of a rejuvenation of the prestigious designer house (and a buoy for Ms. Stone who, despite not having a hit movie since "Basic Instinct," continues to gleam brightly, burnished by Valentino's lavish designs). Valentino, which has since produced three widely praised collections, is embarking on an expansion program in the United States. The house plans to introduce Oliver, its 11-year-old secondary collection, in the United States next year, but first it must rename it. By Constance C. R. White Oct. 10, 1995 16. [Review/Fashion;Capturing the Spirit At a Smaller Price](https://www.nytimes.com/1995/10/09/style/review-fashion-capturing-the-spirit-at-a-smaller-price.html) The problem with the cheaper collections many design houses produce is that they often look, well, cheap. There is nothing that makes a seemingly ridiculous \$1,000 price tag on a dress seem more credible than a version for half the price that has seams showing through, a sloppy hem and questionable fit. The fact is, once all the costs of producing a designer outfit are accounted for, including the advertising, there isn't much money left for the dress itself. By Amy M. Spindler Oct. 9, 1995 17. RUNWAYS [RUNWAYS; Breathing New Life Into Couture](https://www.nytimes.com/1995/08/06/style/runways-breathing-new-life-into-couture.html) THE bride wore white lace, a diamond tiara and an orthodontist smile. The July wedding of Prince Pavlos of Greece and Marie-Chantal Miller was not just the social event of the London season. It beamed out a worldwide message: the display of class, social clout and uptown style are back in fashion. A new generation of glamorous young royals came out of the gilded woodwork -- even if some of their parents and grandparents had mislaid their thrones. By Suzy Menkes Aug. 6, 1995 18. [Review/Fashion; Couture Follows Ready-to-Wear](https://www.nytimes.com/1995/07/11/style/review-fashion-couture-follows-ready-to-wear.html) Couture fashion inspires extremes: either you're thrilled at the heights the art form can achieve or you question the motives of the clients who take the front rows. So it makes perfect sense that Jamie Lee Curtis, wearing her free, white-tweed Gianni Versace couture dress, should declare his show "astonishing," "fabulous" and "as good as you get," while a skeptical Meg Ryan, in her own black leather jacket, attending her first (and probably her last) couture show, said, "I've always been curious what it's about, and now I'm not curious." She added, apologetically, "They are beautiful clothes, though." By Amy M. Spindler July 11, 1995 19. [Review/Fashion; Yves Saint Laurent's Shocking New Color: Black](https://www.nytimes.com/1995/03/22/garden/review-fashion-yves-saint-laurent-s-shocking-new-color-black.html) In a season when the runways of Paris have been exploding with color, Yves Saint Laurent, the supreme colorist, took a cue from the way so many fashionable women dress: he went for black. His show this morning was the last major one of the fall season here, and it left the audience feeling the master was in control. Against a flaming orange and pink backdrop, Saint Laurent sent out scores of black suits and dresses for day and evening, leavened with charcoal gray and an occasional shot of red or purple. The designer, who has been known to mix three unexpected colors in one outfit, managed to breathe new life into his familiar shapes by toning down his palette. By Anne-Marie Schiro March 22, 1995 20. [Review/Fashion; Unashamedly Couture](https://www.nytimes.com/1995/01/24/style/review-fashion-unashamedly-couture.html) Who would have guessed that the most effective answer for fashion's most boring question -- whether couture will survive -- would come from such an unexpected place as the runways of ready-to-wear's avant-garde designers. While the rise of luxury ready-to-wear certainly once hurt couture, it was couture style that saved the last ready-to-wear season. Fashion has thus come full circle. The ready-to-wear, influenced by 1950's couture, is in turn pushing couture to be more true to itself. By Amy M. Spindler Jan. 24, 1995 Page **1** of **7** 1.
