The term "enfant terrible" refers to a child who behaves badly. When it comes to fashion, it typically refers to designers who may have pushed the envelope creatively, offended people, were rebellious, and didn't follow the norms or trends. In this industry, the two enfants terrible are French designer Jean-Paul Gaultier, and British designer Alexander McQueen. Gaultier is famous for the cone-bra he designed for Madonna and the promotion of skirts for men. McQueen is known for being the head designer of Givenchy then for launching the "bumsters" which resulted in the low-rise jeans trend.
