Thierry Mugler back on the catwalk

The first day of Menswear shows in Paris began on Wednesday with a resuscitated maison Mugler. The iconic, extravagent brand which synthesised all the spectacular excess of the 80s had fallen off the map for the last decade or so. But it’s back on the catwalk with a new team headed by Nicola Formichetti (see video itv) as creative director and local fashion talent Romain Kremer on menswear and Sébastien Peigné for womens’. Fashion star Formichetti is also Fashion Director for Uniqlo, Vogue Hommes Japan and Lady Gaga, who provided the soundtrack to the hardcore show.
