Givenchy... And RuPaul... Don't Ask How They Go Together They Just Do... Trust Me...


Givenchy Haute Couture S/S 2010

I feel sorry for the poor old ladies working away in the Givenchy Atelier, because you know that they probably never leave with all the work that goes into these clothes. Seriously, those sequin jumpsuits must have taken hundreds of hours just sewing the sequins into those patterns, not to mention the actual construction of the garments. Riccardo Tisci is so refreshing, he brings new life to the dying art of Haute Couture. Anna Wintour and Carine Roitfeld recently meet with the Minister of Culture to discuss state of French fashion. Many people made the good point that while Anna has cultivated a whole new set of young designers in New York, Carine has much less to show. With the exception of Riccardo and Christophe there are not many new faces in the Paris fashion scene. In the words of RuPaul; Carine, "YOU BETTA WERQ!" And speaking of RuPaul, RuPaul's Drag Race season 2 is coming February 1st.
