It is the Der des Ders. Jean-Paul Gaultier signs his last parade this Wednesday evening. In fifty years of career, the creator has often played the provoc '.

But Jean-Paul Gaultier is not shy. The high-flying creator likes to free himself from conventions and does not hesitate to choose, as muse for his parades, models deemed "out of the ordinary": the singer of the Gossip group, Beth Ditto, with generous measurements, in 2011; reality TV star Nabilla in 2013; Eurovision winner Conchita Wurst in 2014. Among others.

So who will have the privilege of closing their last parade?
