K25: The Stylist Project CONFIRMED

From GregX at the SayHey Forum:

Working at Jean-Paul GAULTIER, I have some "inside" information concerning one of the many projects planned for K25...

For the SS12 fashion issue of Stylist Magazine- out February 15th (to coincide with LFW) - they are planning to collaborate on an "epic shoot to celebrate Kylie's 25th anniversary of being in the business."

That is why they contacted me recently for JPG to be involved...

They are shooting Kylie in L.A. for 3 days next week. Kylie is collaborating with 25 of the most important designers to dress her.

The idea is to include "new" versions of outfits inspired by her most iconic outfits (the crownless hat, the gold hotpants, the dungarees circa Charlene from Neighbours, and more...)

The designers were requested to ask Kylie a question (anything) and if appropriate, to have a memory of her wearing their clothes in the past.

Kylie's team first selected an array of 10 looks from the SS12 collection. However we ended up picking 2 final looks.

I personally didn't approve much of the initial choices as I think, knowing Kylie's petite figure, that some might look a bit too costumy and bulky on her (as some complained during the X-era).

Her team was overexcited and seemed extremely invested in this fashion-oriented project, and so was I

Can't say more... xx

Thanks Greg!
