The new Haute Couture fall / winter 2018-19 collection by Givenchy definitely sets off on the catwalk in Paris, a series of outfits that refer to the world of sculpture and architecture, thanks to the studied, unpublished and hyperbolic volumes that succeed. to give us the idea of an artist's muse on which splendid sculptures, long capes and cloaks appear as if carved in marble.
