Jean Paul Gaultier said he was inspired by "Mexico" for his couture 2010 collection, which is a fairly broad description, but clearly it was the Mexican rain forest that inspired his handbags. The clutches look like various leaves that are so plentiful in that region of the world, and the result is a unique and very beautiful design. The overall collection didn't go over too well in the couture community, but I think he got it right with the bags.
