A look at Givenchy: The Allure of the French Luxury in Fashion

Rising to prominence with its mastery of silhouette, Givenchy is still dominating the luxury fashion market with its creative take on French luxury in fashion.

Back in 1952, designer Hubert de Givenchy opened his eponymous fashion house in Paris – arguably the world’s most luxurious fashion capital. The brand caught the eye of fashion enthusiasts right out of the box with the release of its first collection. The collection was a set of separates that women could mix and match, offering a kind of liberty unknown at that time.

Despite such an innovative start, Givenchy fashion house was epitomized by its conservative luxury fashion for the next few decades. Yet, the glimpse of their creative talents and the panache for uniqueness couldn’t be kept hidden even in the early days.

An Icon of the Fashion World

Before gripping the world with some of his own prophetic designs, Mr. Hubert learned his trade under the wing of Cristóbal Balenciaga, the legendary Spanish master. Together with his mentor, Hubert de Givenchy was dubbed as the most prophetic designer of their time by the New York Times.

It couldn’t be truer, with the designer introducing an entirely new fashion shape called the chemise or the sack dress. He also pioneered the princess silhouette. When Audrey Hepburn wore his mini Balck Dress, Sabrina’s neckline also became forever associated with the visionary designer’s own fashion house.

Givenchy Fashionwear for Men and Women

In today’s world, Givenchy remains an enchanting brand offering a taste of authentic luxury for men and women. The men’s collection is dominated by bold, unapologetic designs, while the women’s collection offers a dose of freedom and silhouette look for ultimate elegance.

For men, the luxury fashion house offers a plethora of shirts, t-shirts, jackets, hoodies, sweaters, and much more. All of them are of the supreme qualities, showcasing elegance and luxury of materials in every little detail. From plain shirts to logo-printed designs, the fashion house combines its youthful energy into Parisian classiness to offer a harmonious fashion that is like no other.

For women, the brand is filled with an array of ready-to-wear dresses to create the perfect modern-day silhouettes. Targeted mostly toward Gen Z, its stylistic appeal is more aligned toward the ‘Open Brag’ philosophy with an intricate combination of tough, trendy and extra-terrestrial-like things.

Givenchy Accessories for Men and Women

In addition to the clothes and dresses, Givenchy also offers different accessories and perfumes for both men and women. These accessories are designed with the same creative taste and artistic finesse, albeit with a view to subliminally complement the dress collections.

The iconic emblematic buckle is still in prominence, while the collection of shoes and bags showcases a mix of classy elegance and unapologetic trends. The sneakers and shoes range from the street-smart monogram printed upper to a sophisticated casual outfit. The bags, on the other hand, are available in several shapes and colors to create a delicate range. The perfumes are top-of-the-line too.
