Let’s please stop romanticising Tisci, he is completely different designer now than when he was leaving Givenchy.
IMHO there’s not much of Givenchy dilemma, they ended up low with Williams so the only one thing would be to appoint any designer with strong pov which would take this poor black dress and turned it into something relevant and sellable. That’s the bottom line they need to get to be able to even think about proper revival. I’d stay away from HC, focused on strong accessories and decent rtw. That being said I no longer believe Burton would be the best fit but then who else could. I’d give Givenchy to KVA and keep it medium size for now.
I’d disagree, KVA is a strong designer and his Berlutti failed not because of his design or sales but because of lack of business acumen of Antoine Arnault. He, on contrary to his sister, has no idea how to run a successful brand and how to make conscious choices and achieve goals. KVA was a victim of AA stupidity at finest. Haider too as we know…Hiring someone like KVA, who I never thought was particularly strong, failed at Berlutti, and who has no experience with womenswear, would be a mistake.
The fact that Tisci implemented his aesthetics without growing up to Burnett was a failure. How come you can offer to conservative British audience mermaids and elbow holes ? What does his mythical aesthetics has to do with Britain and its history etc. ? His aesthetics hasn’t evolved since Givenchy and he though he can just copy and paste it whenever he goes which proved how limited he is nowadays.I think Tisci has been pretty consistent throughout his entire career. His Burberry was more or less a continuation of his Givenchy, just with an emphasis on beige, checks, and trenchcoats.

i think for menswear it was the streetwear he did that resonated allot, womans it was the gothic romantic edgy stuff that was the backdrop for the hit bags and shoes /acc /merch rtwalthough tisci had good streetwear, his success was mostly because of his gothich/romantic collections not streetwear only
