Lady Gaga’s Jean Paul Gaultier interview to kick off CW’s fall season

Anthony Jones – Celebrity News Service Reporter

Los Angeles, CA, United States (Celebrity News Service) – The CW is kicking off its fall season in a big way: with none other than Lady Gaga.

No, she won’t be returning to “Gossip Girl” for another performance. Instead she’s sitting down for an interview with famed fashion designer Jean Paul Gaultier.

Though she’s regularly rocked his designs, it was the first face-to-face meeting for Gaga and Gaultier and cameras were there to capture it all. Taped back in May, the duo covered fame, her fans, and of course, fashion during the hour-long interview.

The special, “Gaga by Gaultier,” is slated to air on the CW on Monday, September 12th from 8pm – 9:15pm ET.

It’ll be followed a preview of the CW’s fall slate, including new and returning shows, hosted by Maggie Q of “Nikita” and Kristoffer Polaha of “Ringer,” the new Sarah Michelle Gellar-starrer premiering the following night.

Call it extreme quilting, but a number of designers fancy a beefed up version of the technique-at Mugler, Jean Paul Gaultier and Louis Vuitton. Some of the coats at Vuitton had a channeled flap that offered a built-in cushion. Imagine all the football fans who would appreciate something like that on a cold day.

Famous Fashion Designers

Fashion designers use flair and know-how to create everything from hospital uniforms to the eye-popping outfits worn by rock stars and models. Jobs for fashion designers are expected to grow more slowly than the average for all careers through 2014, according to government economists. A study of the work of several other fashion designers records how fashion changed throughout the decade.

Fashion design is also a labor of love, requiring long hours and little chance of superstardom — but for many, the work itself is the reward. Fashion designers, in fact, are some of the most creative and eclectic people that you will ever meet. Men’s fashions during the 19th and 20th centuries have been conservative and dull in comparison to women’s. The fashion industry is a big part of our economy. Here is a short list: Chanel Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel (1883-1971) created feminine fashion that provided the feeling of luxury and combined traditional women’s clothing with styles, fabrics, and articles of clothing used by men. Her fashion revolution liberated women to express their femininity with elegance and grace.

The Hollywood film “The Devil Wears Prada”, starring Meryl Streep, has brought a lot of attention to the world of fashion. More information about Prada Versace Gianni Versace (1946-1997) became interested in fashion working in his mother’s small dress shop. By 1978 he had become a design leader of women’s and men’s fashions. More information about Giorgio Armani Jean-Paul Gaultier (1952- ) is a French fashion designer who never received formal design training. In 1967 he purchased the Polo label and launched a world-wide fashion empire that includes clothing lines for men and women.

The high prices commanded by the fashionable Fendi purses have created a large market for fake goods from Asia bearing logos that are eerily similar to the inverted FF. In 1985, they took part in a fashion show featuring “New Talent”, and the following year, they presented their first independent women’s ready-to-wear show. You’d have to be walking around with a shopping bag over your head to not realize that fashion is everywhere. In order to succeed in the often cutthroat–and frequently debt-ridden–world of fashion, designers can no longer hide behind their model’s skirts.

Most fashion designers, however, work for apparel manufacturers, creating designs of men’s, women’s, and children’s fashions for the mass market. Employment growth for fashion designers will be slowed, however, by declines in the apparel manufacturing industries Designers in most fields are expected to face strong competition for available positions.

Most women of means had a dressmaker who would create garments according to the latest fashions. Instead of catering strictly to a few wealthy clients, coveted fashion designers now create product lines ranging from perfumes to pantyhose that can reach consumers at every price point. “Consumers at the middle and lower level have realized they can get just as good a fashion direction with clothing at disposable prices that they can wear once and throw away–or if it falls apart, who cares.
