Givenchy is the favorite of many fashion celebrities and celebrities. From its inception in 1952 to the present, this luxury fashion brand has become an interpretation of fashion, and what has not changed is the perpetuation and impeccability of style.
You'll think of Audrey. Hepburn, would think of Jacqueline. Kennedy, and Grace. Kelly and so on, these goddess-level people are given givens.
The reason is not him, only because the founder Yu bell. morality. Givenchy let their elegance blossom through clothing, allowing their beautiful souls to live in them.
Born in 1927, his family had mines and was a veritable son of a wealthy family.
Although the father of the mine owner did not expect to trap him with the mine, he did not want him to be a tailor, and he hoped that his son would pursue a lofty profession as a lawyer.
But Givenchy insisted on using scissors to create a different life, and enrolled in the art school in Paris.
From his graduation in 1945 until his death, he never deviated from the designer track.
At that time, World War II had just ended, and the fashion that had been destroyed for too long finally ushered in the spring of a hundred flowers. Design rookie Givenchy made his debut as one of his studios.
It was 1952 and Givenchy was 25 years old.
Already well-fledged in the design world, he met his epoch-making springboard, the French supermodel Bettina. Graziani.
Until Givenchy and Hepburn embark on the amazing mode of confidant cooperation, it is impossible to bypass the real soul figure Bettina, who is the real inspiration goddess of Givenchy.
Bettina's face is the dominant screen of 50s fashion.
This incredibly beautiful woman has a bad eye. She joined givenway studio givenchy as Director of Brand Communications,
Bettina's popularity is a powerful guarantee for Givenchy.
She personally promoted the momentum and walked the runway, paving the way for Givenchy to become a well-known designer.
In return for the favor, the first ready-to-wear collection launched by the master designer is named after Bettina.
At the press conference, Bettina was the first to appear, and the simple and comfortable, fresh and clear design style made this "Bettina shirt" popular, and also laid the position of Givenchy.
In 1953, Hollywood movie stars began to take pride in having Givenchy design costumes. His Hepburn was waiting for him in front.
However, when he received a call that "Miss Hepburn is going to talk about cooperation in the film", he thought it was Catherine, the first Actress in the United States, who won an Oscar. Hepburn.
Givenchy's little heart was pounding in anticipation.
Audrey pushes the door in. Hepburn, pouring Givenchy's expectations into disappointment.
Just starred in "Roman Holiday", although Princess Anne suddenly swept the hearts of men, women and children, but it was still a year away from getting the little golden man.
At this time, she was starring in "Dragon Fly", so she personally came to France to choose the costumes needed in the movie.
Givenchy was calm and welcoming, unwilling to even spare time to design her costumes.
But Hepburn was humble, and she and Givenchy had known each other for 42 years.
Some other female stars also put up shelves in front of top design masters, and Hepburn has never had. This is also why the two were able to cross the 42 years of ordinary friendship and warmth.
It doesn't matter if there's no time for her to design specifically, she can try on the old model before.
In this way, Hepburn, whose eyes were as innocent as a deer, used her clean temperament to prop up those costumes, and also shocked Givenchy.
The 24-year-old Hepburn has since become the soul of the 26-year-old Givenchy's costume.
Their meeting was really not sooner or later, because two years later, in 1955, Bettina, the goddess of Givenchy, quietly retired for love and became the princess of Pakistan. She was 30 years old.
The dress in each of Hepburn's films is written by Givenchy: the highly respected small black dress, the floral skirt with a one-word collar, the loose but elegant trench coat, etc., all of which reveal style and fashion.
From 1953 until the 90s, Hepburn's dressing style was a bellwether for Van Xi clothing. There is also a dramatic little plot here.
Dragon with Phoenix was the beginning of their collaboration, with Givenchy designing three outfits for Hepburn: a black cocktail dress, a dark suit, and a silk evening dress.
These three outfits suddenly won the film an Oscar for best costume design, and of course, Hepburn also wore these three outfits to charm the world.
However, the best costume designer writes about another person, no Givenchy or anything.
Hepburn was furious, not only personally speaking for him, but also directly making a decision, and he was her special designer in the future.
It is not clear whether It was Givenchy who made Hepburn more excellent, or whether hepburn, who was really temperamental, pushed Givenchy's talent to a new height.
Perhaps, the two of them are mutually accomplished.
The beloved confidant of his life, although he would never come together, survived any of Hepburn's three marriages. Even Hepburn's wedding dress was designed by Givenchy.
Perhaps the moment he draped the wedding dress he had designed for her on her, he was already the happiest person.
Hepburn died in 1993.
She left a piece of clothing for Givenchy. They have achieved a friendship for half a lifetime because of their clothes, and the last thing they leave behind is the reluctance and mourning that the clothes are pinned on.
Givenchy costumes, there is a woman can not get around, that is, the former First Lady of the United States Jacqueline. Kennedy.
According to rumors, she was related to Givenchy and Hepburn. Because his husband, Kennedy, the mercurial president, was in love with Hepburn.
Perhaps it was Hepburn's cool temperament that Jacqueline admired, or perhaps Givenchy's costumes were too flattering, jacqueline did not show rejection and disdain for this legendary love enemy, but wanted to compete.
In 1963, the First Lady modified a yellow simple yellow evening dress worn by Hepburn into a pink version, which was not too jumpy and could highlight the calm and detached temperament of the First Lady.
Of course, as the first lady of the United States, you can't always wear the signs of other countries.
But when she visited Paris, she cleverly wore Givenchy's white simple dress, and Jacqueline, who was very graceful in Versailles, gave the host a lot of face and eyeballs, and lived a giefsi brand addiction.
When Kennedy was assassinated and a funeral was held, the Kennedy family was dressed in Givenchy's costumes. The size of the Kennedy family woman is kept in Givenchy's clothing number library.
Some say givenchy spent his life pleasing those women. In fact, Givenchy will always be Givenchy, he is doing his favorite thing, he pleases not the heart of a woman, but his own pursuit and understanding of fashion.
He kept the women alive in their clothes.
In 2018, Givenchy died at the age of 91. He took away the elegant fashion that symbolized an era and achieved an era symbol that will never be indelible.
