A sheer sophisticated collection for Givenchy Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2016

  |   03-02-2016

 

Riccardo Tisci made 12 glamorous womenswear pieces. It’s quite unheard of to have such a small collection for a couture show however he’s made it work. Long floor length dresses draped over shoulders; some had cut-out panels that flashed skin, and others were worn with glittery evening capes. But they all ooze elegance and sophistication.

The alluring, provocative clothes literally sparkled with crystal details on tulle.  Patchworks of snakeskin and velvet merge with lace and leather. But Tisci’s showpieces wasn’t just about long dresses. He also got it so right with shimmering outerwear; a standout black cloak, over an elegant black dress, with lace, metallic studded details and patched leather. It was a romantic, enticing and strong piece to say the least.
