6. SOUNDBITE Jean Charles de Castelbajac: "It is going from my big palace to this place which smells of authenticity and sense as a real consequence and it will have a real consequence on my work. I want to do an art gallery, a club with a gang of friends. You have seen them today, they are the first members of my club. I want to do my studio and I want to revive things that smell good."

8. SOUNDBITE Jean Charles de Castelbajac: "In the collection you will see in one year because it is the base for my new development of my mens' style. I want to go back to my roots when I came out of the country in the 70s. I came out with the working class jacket which fascinated me when I was a young kid. So it was the inspiration for my style, the blanket and it's like that when I did my first jacket for John Lennon, it was a mix of blanket and a working class jacket. So it is like redefining the base of my style, going back to the roots."

FASHIONISITAS AS WORKING CLASS HEROES
'Man is not a fashion victim, but a working class hero' was the theme running through designer Castelbajac's Autumn and Winter collection 2003 in Paris on Saturday (25JAN).
Models were dressed mostly in blue, blue trousers, blue jackets and blue shirts, with only the materials deviating from the working class theme with cotton, wool velours and leather dominating the collection.
And instead of parading on the catwalk, the models stood silently in a line facing the wall without moving, waiting to be personally introduced by the designers.
No ordinary models but friends and acquaintances of the designer, the group of "working class heroes" was made up of pop impresario and spin doctor Malcolm McLaren, musician Laurent Voulzy, Louis Bertignac, editor of art magazine 'Beaux-Arts' and designers Christophe Pillet and Christian Ghion.
The unusual show took place in the new but unfinished work space of Castelbajac, which he promises will also house an art gallery and a club. The move to a new building promises to herald the beginning of a new phase in his creative work. Jean Charles promises a return to his 70s roots with navy jackets, rough woollen roll neck jumpers, and short motorcycle jackets.
