Duran Lantink and Jean Paul Gaultier

Dutch designer Duran Lantink has been appointed the new creative director of the fashion house Jean Paul Gaultier. Lantink is the first official successor to Gaultier following his departure from the runway in 2020. His debut collection for the brand is anticipated to be unveiled in January 2026.

Lantink graduated from the Gerrit Rietveld Academie and the Sandberg Institute in Amsterdam. In 2021, he held his first runway show, and just two years later, he became part of the official calendar for Paris Fashion Week.
