Givenchy HC FW 08/09 Paris


I always look forward to seeing the Haute Couture shows from Givenchy. And this season was no disappointment although I still don't like it as much as what they did last season.

What I really like is that Tisci for Givenchy is one of the few doing Haute Couture with a modern and young twist. The clothes are beautifully constructed, detailed and designed and have this immediate Haute Couture feel without beeing decadent. Most other Haute Couture shows consist mainly of huge extravagant dresses with big bows and frills. I love that side of Haute Couture too but it's refreshing to see this "new" take on Haute Couture.

Outfit - I always write you letters in multicolours...

This is what I wore to the cinema last night. I went to see Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis, a French comedy which was absolutely hilarious. One of the funniest movie I've seen in a long time.
