"Their [the models] faces were painted like plaster statues, their garb inspired by the vernacular devotional art found in local churches throughout the Catholic world..." - Sarah Mower of Jean Paul Gaultier Couture. Spring 2007, Paris.
As far as I know Gaultier isn't Catholic, and while the Virgin Mary is not Jesus Christ, aren't there some things that are just a tad bit out of line?
They all remind me of the "Jesus is my homeboy" t-shirts.
