Gaultier Brings The Runaways To The Runway

With Joan Jett-inspired hairdos, a lot of leather, and an appearance by Beth Ditto, Jean Paul Gaultier’s Spring 2011 Ready to Wear collection carries quite a rock and roll edge.

Shades of Bowie, no?

Am I the only one who automatically starts singing “Beat It” whenever red leather is involved?

What do you think of the double heel on these shoes?

Another view.

There something kind of punk rock fairytale about this one, right?

Shades of Cherie Currie; Taylor Momsen is probably having the, “But Mooooom! I want it!!!” battle as we speak.

Jackets with strong shoulders also had quite a presence.

Beth looks thrilled to be walking for her friend…

And the designer himself is just as excited to see her.
