Conchita Wurst: Now a model of Jean-Paul Caultier


An ESC-Winner on the catwalk for Jean-Paul Caultier. The designer took her on stage to represent his work of dresses at a show in Paris. It is no secret that Jean-Paul Caultier is a big fan on the Eurovision Song Contest and that he was overwelmed after Conchitas victory in May. 

The designer was talking to "The Independent" and explained why he choose Conchita to model for him on the catwalk: 

I met Conchita two years ago when she came to one of my couture shows, I loved her look and when I heard that she will represent Austria in the Eurovision Song Contest, I was delighted. When she won I was crazy with joy.
I always say that beauty is difference and Conchita has shown us all that she is unstoppable.
The designer sees Conchita as a new genre, he adores her being a man with a beard full of male energy but still being femine as she is. A unbelievable mix of both. In his opinion it is very brave but beautiful for everyone to live the own life as everyone wants to. But this wasn't the first time Jean-Paul and Conchita worked together. The designer already draft a dress for her for the stage and the dress the artist wear at the Life Ball in Vienna came out of his head. 

At the end of the show, which had a morbid touch with models looking like vampires and many candles, the designer went down on his knees to thank Conchita muse. This privilege had Madonna once before. The audiance itself were enthusiastic and give the new catwalk model a big hand of applause.
