Givenchy

 During the 1950’s 
 Hubert Givenchy 
 sought inspiration 
 from the lofty 
 settings of Haute 
 Couture to the 
 Avant- Garde 
 environments of 
 Manhattans East 
 Village. 


The French label founded in 1952 by Hubert de Givenchy became renowned for designing the costumes famously worn by Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Now under the creative direction of Italian designer Riccardo Tisci, Givenchy continues to produce highly imaginative and precisional designs verging on the ‘darkly romantic and slightly melancholic’. To keep emphasis on the streamlined silhouette, colour palettes are constructed in a variety of blacks, greys, whites and beiges with hints of ruby and topaz.
