Givenchy's new creative director debuted on Friday in one of Paris Fashion Week’s most anticipated moments and a long-awaited reset for a house that, in recent years, has struggled to find its footing.
For Sarah Burton, who took over the reins last September, Givenchy’s legacy has loomed large — immortalized in Audrey Hepburn’s little black dress in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, then upended by Riccardo Tisci, who spent 12 years reshaping the brand with his gothic, street-inflected vision before departing in 2017.
