Givenchy is dear to me.
My Antigona smiles at me every day. But that's not all there is to Givenchy. Take a look at Givenchy's Autumn/Winter 2013/2014 collection and you'll see why. It's like Bambi had Vodka and danced with Kurt Cobain in the woods. It's a little bit fairy tale, Red Hot Chili Peppers and French macaroons all thrown together to create this crazy amazing amalgamation of a serious cohesive, subversive, interesting and a tiny bit disturbing collection.
Kafka was also ahead of his time; never understood by his peers but a genius in disguise.
Givenchy has this Kafka-esque feel to me that is deep, intellectual, street, genius-ahead but also dirty cool.
I am particularly fond of Pat McGrath's mauve makeup palette, which is so now and fresh at the same time.
But also grown up, sophisticated and avantgarde cool.
Love.
