Givenchy Fall 2011

Givenchy is fast becoming one of my most awaited shows every season. Ever since i saw those gothic gowns at Spring 2007 Couture, i knew it would continue to be a hit with me. Oh my goodness, words can not describe my love for the Fall 2011 for Givenchy by Tisci. It put a smile on my face when i saw it, there were humuorous elements combined with the signature darkness of any Givenchy collection. Riccardo Tisci definately was paying homage to the 1950’s, with traditional rounded cat eye glasses and pencil skirt. These elements combined with the feline and jungle prints and sexy sheer panels make me come to the conclusion of “50’s housewife on the prowl”…would you agree?
Something that really stood out to me in this collection was the beautiful colour palette, mixing dark and muted tones with the saturated yellows, greens and purples, it was extremely playful. My words really can not do this collection enough justice, if i could…i would buy the whole collection to just sit and stare at it in amazement.
