Duran Lantink is appointed as the new permanent Creative Director of the House of Jean Paul Gaultier after its collaborative era. His first ready-to-wear collection will be presented in Paris during RTW women’s fashion week in September and his debut Haute-Couture collection will be in January 2026. When asked about the new role, Jean Paul Gaultier said “I see in him the energy, audacity, and playful spirit through fashion that I had at the beginning of my own journey, The new « enfant terrible » of fashion. Welcome, Duran.”
Duran Lantink followed up by saying, “I consider Jean Paul Gaultier a genius and part of a generation that kicked down doors, so people like us can walk through them freely and be who we are without apology. Stepping into the role of Creative Director is a true honor. To me, Gaultier represents the ultimate house of creative spirit and savoir-faire. It’s provocative, and continuously pushing boundaries. It’s the brand that brings together different disciplines around fashion to create cultural movements, changing the language of clothes and how we wear them in the streets.”
