90s ‘Creation of Adam’ Printed Knit Cardigan

Jean Paul Gaultier mid 90’s mainline ‘Creation of Adam’ Printed Knit Cardigan. JPG in the mid 90s explored the application of renaissance era graphics on his signature ‘tattoo tees’ and knits. This knit features an odd juxtaposition of a noir tech-punk chest graphic complemented by Michael Angelo’s “Creation of Adam” painting on the back, arms and reversible inside. Painting’s graphic is applied directly on the knit while the tech, ‘horned man’, motif is printed on a fabric which is sewn over the knit base. JPG, a strong pioneer of unisex clothing, has a “Maille” line, outside of “Maille Femme”, which features mainline knits able to be comfortably worn by both men and women. As JPG ripened in the late 90’s he pulled away from the “Enfant Terrible” and started to hone his eccentric creative direction into something more full and bright, but sound and percise. This eventually led his journey to Hermes succeeding Margiela’s years at the house.
