RUNWAY: Givenchy SS13
Riccardo Tisci's hard edged collections for
Givenchy softened a bit for SS13. Hard, angular cuts were shown but were softened with a lighter color palette and series of beautifully soft prints, some creating wonderful
trompe-l'œil effects; while fabrications were couture-quality. Tunics were shown, hinting at a religious aspect, a constant for Tisci, and those were juxtaposed with transparent layers that a bit sexy, a bit scandalous and functional in the hot summer months.
