I at last made it to Jean Paul’s show at the Brooklyn Museum and of course I  just loved it. There was not too much in the show about the 6 or 7 years that I worked with him as most of the show was after 1983 which is when I moved from Paris to the US. Needless to say my JP coat was not in the show (see above). I can not bear to  part with it and have repaired it numerous times with different materials. All the clothing I have from him from that time I still have, they are rather in tatters but living in downtown New York they still work, I don’t think that I would dare to wander round Paris in them. I’ll model my other clothes for you from that era at a later date.
The mannequins talking and singing with true facial movements is absolute Jean Paul genius. I just wish somehow that the rest of the show was able to capture his fun Felliniesque side that is so special and personal to him……Maybe it needed my makeup touch! Â Linda
