Imagine Junet et Caros movie "City of the lost children". The grown ups want to steal the children´s dreams, and the their courage in this battle is described. The costumes by Jean Paul Gaultier reflects the naive and childish in the use of broad stripes in knitwear, visible applied bands and buttons.

Amelia Earhart was the first woman to cross the Atlantic Ocean by plane by herself. Sadly, she disappeared when she tried to fly around the world. She became a mythical heroine in a world dominated by men. Her styles was androgynous. Femininity and masculinity was combined in a sophisticated and unpretentious way.

In this collection the two sources of inspiration are combined. The silhouettes shifts from the outmost naive to the conservative. The use of classical materials and dusty colors unites the two opposites, and leaves a sense of the vulnerability and braveness in the story.
