GIVENCHY PRE-FALL 2010.

Hmm, why so restrained Mr.Tisci? What would Rihanna say about your no-stud policy for fall? And do I see color?

It’s unlike the Givenchy we’ve seen; it was clean, tailored, and experimental but it lacks the Tisci identity. I was really anticipating a stronger than before collection by Tisci, not a toned-down Givenchy. I wouldn’t have guessed that this was Givenchy, my guesses were: Celine & Chloe or worst, Zara. (Because of the marabou feathers) The only thing that hinted that this was indeed a Givenchy collection was the Nightingale. (Which now comes in a trolley bag.)
