Reppin Africa: Givenchy Spring 2014 - Paris Fashion Week

Riccardo Tisci was all about mainstream fashion last season, see the explosion of designer sweatshirts and bomber jackets everywhere. Now he is bringing us African and Asian inspired gowns with no prints, no panthers, nor a single sweatshirt.
 Riccardo built on the sultry draping dresses, enhancing with woven leather harnesses, layering in silk tailoring with a soft kimono influence, and coursing through a rich, earthy palette of oranges, taupes, red, black and navy. A step away from the blockbuster tee's!

   

 The collection was a strong step away from the commercial. Do we like it?
