Paris Couture Week 2008 Wrap Up Edit
Givenchy Surprises

Givenchy seemed to show the greatest variety of styles and fabrics of all the collections showcased during the high end Couture Fashion Week in Paris.

From sheers to metallics to shiny black, Riccardo Tisci, the designer behind the label, proved he could do it all. There was a modern outlook to all the lovely fashions, even the tailored and casual.

Tisci is finishing his tenth year as creative director. Mixed reviews from fashion journalists were the surprise. Some liked the variation, others wanted the more traditional Givenchy look.
