Hello Coveteur! Gigi Goode here (remember me?), reporting live from the Jean Paul Gaultier runway where Simone Rocha debuted her Fall 2024 collection as guest designer for the haute couture house à Paris! Actually, I’m reporting from Gaultier HQ, my hotel room, the streets of Paris, Lola’s hotel room, the runway (finally), and then the hotel again. And of course, I’m wearing *pinch me* head-to-toe Gaultier—no, my mom did not make this one, this time—in solidarity. Post-show, I’m currently speechless, but luckily I managed to jot down a few notes along the way about the looks I died for, the eyeliner I lost, and Lana Del Rey’s height in person—journalism, what can I say? Enjoy!
[9:30 AM] rise and shine, it’s time for glamour & Gaultier!
[9:31 AM] f**k. I forgot my eyeliner at home.
[10:30 AM] diva I just scoured the streets of Paris for an hour looking for a damn black eyeliner only to find that there was a store right next to my hotel.
[10:45 AM] - OKAY. Now it’s time for glamour. Here’s what I’m wearing:
[10:45 AM] cont.- I’m thinking super clean makeup with a tight black waterline (maybe a wing? Idk I’m feeling bold). And then for hair I’m going for messy updo// spent hours but ruined it with sex.
I’ll let you know how that goes...
[11:30 AM] makeup is done. What do you think? Feeling soft
[11:59 AM] - after many trials and tribulations- the hair is done. Lots of twisting, pulling, and pinning later, here’s the hair:
[12:04 PM]manic and frantic because I can’t find the earrings I was given to wear… thankfully I have backups but I’m hoping and praying that they’re still at Gaultier HQ.
[12:31 PM] just finished getting ready. Now I’m on my way to see my girl Lola, who you might know as Valeria from ‘Veneno.’ We met for dinner last night and decided it would be fierce if we arrived to the show together.
[1:30 PM] Made it to Lola’s room!
[2:32 PM] Arrived to the show! Took so many pics. Got to see Jean Paul again and physically BUMPED into Anna wintour. Very fierce. Jennifer Tilly is also here for any Chucky fans. I gagged.
[2:43 PM] Serena Vanderwoodsen’s mom from Gossip Girl made a cute little appearance (checked Getty images for that one)
[2:45 PM] Lana del Rey is much taller than I thought…
[2:46 PM] bella thorne is sitting right across from me. I Impulsively winked at her like three times?
[2:48 PM] Noah Cyrus is just a few chairs down from me. Such a sweetheart. Love bumping into her
[3:02 PM] show is FINALLY starting.
[4:04 PM] back at Lola’s hotel. Absolutely speechless. I love Simone Rocha and her collaboration with Gaultier was amazing. I don’t even think I can pick a favorite.
