Givenchy Womenswear

Darkly elegant, sensual yet moody, inspired by the past yet always of the now, Givenchy juggles juxtapositions (try saying that after a glass of champers). A brand known best for pioneering the ‘’little black dress’ which became popularised with the alluring Holly Golightly in 1961, current creative director Riccardo Tisci has retained the label’s aristocratic aesthetic, while giving it a modern identity, one where modern tailored separates are reinvented with Gothic-inspired detailing, channelling visions of Du Maurier’s Mrs de Winter, and casual-wear is adorned in energetic prints. Dramatic, daring and anything but dull, Givenchy embodies the Browns’ customer right down to a crucifix-shaped T.
