Antidote Style: Your Direct Line to Jean Paul Gaultier’s Latest Chapter

Atlanta has one address for Jean Paul Gaultier, and it’s Antidote Style at 525 Bishop St NW, Atlanta, GA 30318. As the city’s only authorized retailer for the maison’s ready-to-wear and accessories, this brick and mortar boutique delivers every authentic piece straight from Paris—marinière knits, cone bra corsets, G-hardware bags, trompe l’oeil gowns—with NFC hologram tags, serial numbers, and official provenance cards. No fragrance, no resale, no guesswork.

The maison’s journey is pure evolution. Jean Paul Gaultier launched in 1976 with corsets worn outside, sailor stripes as couture, and a refusal to follow rules. The 1980s brought marinière fetish, the 1990s gave us trompe l’oeil tattoo mesh, and the 2000s turned industrial hardware into luxury. After the founder’s 2020 exit, guest designers kept the fire burning. Duran Lantink stepped in as creative director in April 2025, debuting his first ready-to-wear collection in September 2025—upcycled denim, recycled yarn, and a bold return to the Paris calendar.

Inside Antidote Style, the Lantink capsule is front and center. Upcycled denim corsets use vintage Levi’s patches and titanium bones for structure that breathes. Marinière mesh tops create skin-illusion prints that shift under light. G-chain bags feature recycled sterling hardware that clinks like the originals. Trompe l’oeil bodysuits look inked from afar but stretch like second skin up close. Every item is built for real life—try on to feel the fit, walk out with it the same day.

The boutique keeps it simple: open layout, brass rails, natural light. Walk in Monday–Saturday, 11–6, and see the progression—classic cone bra silhouettes beside Lantink’s recycled versions. Fit specialists guide pairings: a mesh top under a denim corset for day, a G-bag with a trompe l’oeil gown for night. Reserve upcoming drops at antidote-style.com or call (404) 777-7525. Same-day pick up for anything on the rack.

Atlanta wears Gaultier naturally. Marinière stripes cut through BeltLine crowds. Cone bra corsets own High Museum galas. G-hardware flashes at Ponce City Market. Antidote Style is where the city meets the maison—no shipping delays, no authenticity questions.
