Hubert de Givenchy, le gentleman de la mode

Catherine Lebrun, ancienne responsable du patrimoine chez Chloé, inaugure une nouvelle chronique pour Miss Tweed : Histoires de mode. L’actualité éclairée par l’histoire de la mode. Plonger dans le passé pour mieux comprendre le présent et l’avenir. Pour savoir où aller, il est bon de se souvenir d’où l’on vient. Sarah Burton, ancienne directrice de la création chez Alexander McQueen, dont elle était le bras droit, a été nommée chez Givenchy cette semaine. Va-t-elle redonner à la maison une élégance intemporelle avec un twist moderne ou va-t-elle faire du McQueen, avec son côté flamboyant et animal, mâtiné de romance noire ? Le Givenchy rock chic de Riccardo Tisci avait marché un temps, mais le créateur italien l’a épuisé, et sa version édulcorée, moins mature, de Matthew Williams n’a pas convaincu.
