'Bratz has always celebrated radical self-expression through fashion,' said Jasmin Larian-Hekmat, Bratz creative director. 'Partnering with an icon like Jean Paul Gaultier, who has consistently challenged norms and redefined style for decades, is a testament to Bratz's enduring place in the fashion sphere. This is Bratz at its boldest and most unforgettable.'
The Bratz x Jean Paul Gaultier doll features a look inspired by Gaultier's ready-to-wear collections, with a playful nautical spirit and a chic punk twist. The doll's outfit features a crisp marinière crop top, a pleated tartan miniskirt with buckle accents, and a white sailor hat that sits atop Sasha's waist-length blond waves, embossed with Gaultier's name.
Accessories for the doll include black cleated heels, metallic silver bag, earrings and sunglasses and safety pin detail on the skirt, also featuring Gaultier's name as part of the hardware design.
'This exclusive collaboration celebrates two icons of nonconformity, creating a collector's piece where Bratz meets the world of Jean Paul Gaultier,' the house of Jean Paul Gaultier said. 'Spectacular, avant-garde and outrageously iconic, Bratz x Jean Paul Gaultier is designed for true 'Enfants Terribles' only.'
Bratz's Y2K sensibility has seen a major resurgence as various early aughts trends make a comeback into mainstream Gen Z fashion and street style. Last May, Urban Sophistication dropped their most recent partnership with Bratz, featuring the leather Anon Bag, and teasing forthcoming collaborations.
