Givenchy Fall 2009 Haute Couture




There’s always skepticism surrounding Tisci’s couture collections, but as far as I’m concerned, this one is outstandingly good. I am sure people will nitpick but it is a gorgeous collection and if you’re going to go over the top, this is definitely the way to do it. The heavy gold embellishments are back, yet again – but this time feels new due to his expansive usage of something familiar, creating many new patterns and effects. The clothes all look impeccably constructed, not to mention the designs themselves are to die for. It’s clear there was no stone left unturned this season; everything is so thoughtful and also executed amazingly. From the theme, to the variation in materials, the range of embellishment and detail work, to the presentation, there is so much to admire. bravo Mr. Tisci. :]
