Givenchy Menswear Pre-Fall Is So Much Better Than Its Womenswear

Being that it is his first menswear Pre-Fall collection, Riccardo did a great job! Everything about this collection is impeccable! It is a nice contrast to the womenswear collection, which was excessively styled and had a bit of a trying to hard aesthetic. This collection, on the other hand, exemplifies what street-style is all about: cool, urban, and simple.

Riccardo Has An Editing Problem: Givenchy Pre-Fall

      I'm not too sure if I like this collection or not, but I am sure of one thing: Riccardo Tisci has an editing problem. This collection is comprised of equal hits as there are misses. Many pieces are wonderfully tailored, but others (chiffon dresses, thigh shorts) lack in execution to their counterparts. For one thing, the Rick Owen boots don't do the collection any justice. And secondly, isn't this a little bit reminiscent of Balenciaga's F/W 2011 collection? There are stellar pieces, however: the knitwears and the dexterously constructed coats (these will sell like crazy). Many of these looks would be better had they been styled differently, or rather, less: simplicity is key. Is it just me or is Givenchy's HC so much stronger than its RTW lately?

Rooney Mara Stuns in Givenchy

Premiere of The Girl With the Dragon Tatttoo, London

The new it-girl of Hollywood, who stars in one of the most anticipated films of the year, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, radiates in this embroidered, backless Givenchy gown at the movie's premiere in London. Contrasting the dress' femininity with crepuscular frills, Mara sports black, blunt bangs, paired with a dark smokey-eye. She certainly knows how how to make a debut! I look forward to seeing more of her style in the future!

This gown is from Givenchy's Fall 2011 Couture collection:
