Jean Paul Gaultier's tribute to Amy Whinehouse-Paris Fashion Week.

Who in the world would of thought, "Couture" & "Cigarette smoking, peeking bra's and beehives" would all be bunched together in one huge event.

The late Valerie & Back to Black singer was famous for her avant-garde tattoo's and dress sense, and has obviously been a big inspiration to Jean Paul Gaultier's latest collection this week!

Beehives, thick eyeliner and moles galore, all the Amy staples have been included in this truely memorable collaboration. Some may say Jean Paul has brought out the bad side of Amy referencing her dishevelled aesthetic, reckless attitude and penchant for smoking, but others say this collection is very moving and a great tribute. The classic Jean Paul Gaultier corsets and tight, waist accentuating pencil skirts add a touch of class, even with 'negative' added extras such as; cigarettes, hoop earrings, lazy eyes and relaxed stances. Some may see this entire collection as distasteful, and not respectful in anyway towards Amy and her fans, family and freinds, but some see it as an excellent tribute, out-lining how much of an inspiration Amy was to the community in fashion and music.

Amy Whinehouse's father, Mitch Whinehouse has expressed his dislike for the collection, and thinks it

 'glamorises some of the more upsetting times in her life' and close friends of Amy, such as, Kelly Osbourne has expressed her dislike on twitter, whereas front seat watchers like Beth Ditto & Dita von Teese, thought the tribute was incredibly moving.However, moving past all the negatives, I think the collection has most certainly shown a more relaxed and even a more wearable stane to couture, in contrast to the 'gaga' style outfits worn by plenty of models on the walk of fame, which usually include mad horns, nets and chains, oh dear.

But, we all have different opinions, I guess.
Rest In Peace, Amy Whinehouse.
