Givenchy HC F/W 07.08 Paris

[seanutbutter]

I'm in shock; this is dreadful.

 

[just_me]

it looks like early McQueen..

 

[Squizree]

This isnt great Givenchy's RTW is always better than its Couture.

The white gown on Magdalena is going into my top 10 favorite dresses of all time... Right next to the one Natasha Poly wore last season with the bubble skirt and chiffon overlay...

 

[TheGlassAngel]

Some of it is gorgeous, some is terrible. Overall, it's not a very balanced collection but it certainly has it's fair share of stunning dresses (especially the one of Raquel)

 

[kasper!]

[TheGlassAngel]

Yep! She did!

just ignore the leopard get-up, I say.

I adore what Tisci does more and more with every season. Givenchy has become one of the my top favorites to see.

yeah apart from the leopard prints,this is an absolute stunner to me....utterly amazing. i love those pieces with the macabre skeletal textures. just the whole structure of everything....breathtaking.

btw,i disagree that he doesn't do the italian thing. i actually think he's very connected to his roots,not so much in its fashion heritage in the high-luxe or glamazon trash,but as a craftsman he is very much Italian. but i think the fact that he is ex-student from CSM and worked the first years in london and paris really influence his aesthetics.

I really like this outfit!

I find the gradational technique in the leopard print quite poetic. Almost like a play on the progress of savagery towards civilization.

Hehe. I hate prints...

 

[AudiEC]

I love Tisci's work though!

 

[city girl]

I love the gowns. The rest is alright

[Caffeine]

are they seriously COUTURE? why?

 

[kissmesweet]

I like most of this collection. The silhouettes and designs are gorgeous.

I hated it at first when we only got the leopard-previews.

 

[Milho]

the girls look so pale, but fierce. except the hair, the whole collection is complete and reverberant, so perfect

surprised to see Du Juan, but she's really fanscinated

 

[lakomka]

My god Tishi's Spring Couture collection was so gorgeous, and than this...
