## Autumn-Winter 1982-1983 Fashion Show

We do not see enough dogs on the runway, although there is something a bit twisted about the model wearing fur while walking with two furry animals.

## Prêt-à-Porter, collection Printemps-été 1986

That is Iman, and frankly, I am surprised this hasn't made a return on anybody. Kendall Jenner would go there.

## Autumn-Winter 1986-1987 Fashion Show

I truly could have seen someone in this at a Met Gala recently, too.

That's Iman again, and I wish it were a better photo of the whole outfit, but you can certainly get a sense of how he played with volume (the cape) and scarcity (the sideboob).

## Autumn-Winter 1988-1989 Fashion Show

This is an older sibling to the one Cardi B later wore, which we'll see in a minute. It has a wonderful snow queen vibe to it that would have been ideal with SWINTON in Narnia.

## Pret A Porter Autumn/Winter 1989-1990

Hello, Naomi! She looks like she's about to go on THE most glamorous minibreak in the Riviera, probably in a convertible.

## Spring-Summer 1990 Fashion Show

Admittedly, I do not know what in the world is going on here.

## Ready To Wear Spring/Summer 1990-1991

That's Carla Bruni. I can see why Bella Hadid has worn a Mugler catsuit or two in her life -- she has a bit of resemblance to Carla.

## Ready To Wear Fall/Winter 1990-1991

It's always good to see Helena Christensen. She gets a bit less attention than some of the other supers of her era, but LOOK at that face. The eyes are piercing. This jacket also reminds me vaguely, without the actual cones, of what Julia Fox was wearing on the site earlier today.

And of course we have Cindy in sparkly hotpants.

It's not just anyone who could get Miss Ross on the runway in a sheer catsuit.

## Spring-Summer 1992 Fashion Show

Everyone in the front row seems to be looking at the people across the runway from them, as if they're all trying to gauge each each others' reactions.

## Ready To Wear Spring/Summer 1992-1993

Eva Herzigova here is presenting us with an INCREDIBLY ornate body stocking. (Shades of Madonna in the head-styling, maybe?)

I don't know if the dates are all correct on these, as some of the backdrops don't line up, but the YEAR is at least accurate I think? Anyway, I think this is Niki Taylor, and I believe she is wearing a series of motorcycle mirrors. [You may remember this from George Michael's "Too Funky" video, which is ALL Mugler.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQ2DVwSVIIo&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).

I cannot quite parse this.

## Autumn-Winter 1992-1993 Fashion Show

This is so dramatic on Karen Mulder -- THIS strikes me as something Lady Gaga would wear now.

Don't worry, we would never forget Christy.

## Fall/Winter 1995

Jerry Hall featured quite often on Mugler's catwalks.

I also found a shot of her in a Mugler dress, WITH Mugler. They must have been quite close.

## Ready to Wear Fall/Winter 1995-1996

Nor would we leave out Claudia! She demands to be seen in this, which is SO Dynasty to me even though Dynasty wasn't even on the air at this point.

## Thierry Mugler Fall 1995

It's not a 90s party without Linda Evangelista.

I am not sure exactly who this is, but the caption reads, "Dropping a cape of organza silk, a model reveals Thierry Mugler research of form in a stark black evening sheath with jet velvet sleeves." I think "research of form" is a very careful way of saying "BUTTOCKS AHOY."

## Fall -Winter 95 -96

All of my parties in the 90s ended this way.

I would like to see Kim wear this now. And with a full tea service balanced up there.

This could be an editorial in a magazine.

No big deal, just a scaly human butterfly type thing.

This has shades of current Schiaparelli now.

Cardi wore this to the opening of a Mugler exhibit -- it's from the Fall 1995 show, which Vogue says was worn by Eva Herzigova, [though I can't entirely recognize her](https://en.vogue.me/fashion/retrospective-thierry-mugler-most-iconic-dresses/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).

And this one is from 1981 -- AND it's been trotted out a few times, as [Dua Lipa wore a version on SNL](https://www.gettyimages.ca/detail/news-photo/kristen-wiig-episode-1794-pictured-musical-guest-dua-lipa-news-photo/1230184719?adppopup=true&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) and [singer Zara Larsson wore it in 2016](https://www.gettyimages.ca/detail/news-photo/singer-zara-larsson-attends-the-2016-mtv-video-music-awards-news-photo/597564592?adppopup=true&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). I can see why it would get attention.

## 2019

I regret to remind you that this is Mugler, from Spring 1998\. I mean... it's iconic? Not in a good way. But still. It will burn on all our brains.

## 2019

And here's Cardi in "The Birth of Venus," from 1995\. I love that she did this -- it truly is so unexpected when someone wears something this sculpted on the red carpet.

## Cardi B

Inside, she wore this, also from 1995\. Mugler as a brand did a good job with outreach in the last few years.

This is the Met Gala afterparty look from 2019, which I believe Mugler also designed for her. And it works...

... but this was better, for the Camp-themed party. The idea was for her to look like she'd walked out of the sea and straight to the Gala, and she did. They did exactly what they set out to do, and apparently he labored over it for 8 months.
