Givenchy fall 2005- Couture



The collection is started off with the classic blacks and whites



Many dark flowing dresses are present in the collection



The whole collection is comprised of the monochromatic scheme. All the neutral colors are in full presence.

This was Riccardo Tisci's debut show. The expecations were high as people lined up outside with heavy security. Most people only knew at this time that Riccardo had a gothic touch to his designs and he the heavy support of model Mariacarla Boscono and her other model friends.

You can see from this collection it very much embodies Givenchy, but with an extra edge. Many of the dresses remind me of a retro dress, but different in some ways. This is Hurbert De Givenchy updated to the year 2000.

Apart from the weird hair styling of some of the models, I thought this was a great start for Riccardo. I look forward to seeing more of his future collections!
