Givenchy, the renowned luxury fashion label owned by LVMH, has been chosen as the special guest of honour for the upcoming edition of Pitti Uomo. The prestigious trade show is scheduled to take place in the beautiful city of Florence, Italy from June 11-14. Givenchy will be presenting its highly anticipated menswear collection on Wednesday, June 12, marking the first time the brand will showcase a menswear runway show at Pitti Uomo.
This groundbreaking opportunity allows designer Clare Waight Keller, who took on the role of creative director at Givenchy in March 2017, to unveil her unique vision for the brand’s menswear. While Waight Keller has primarily focused on women’s ready-to-wear and haute couture collections, she recently made waves by introducing the brand’s first-ever haute couture menswear alongside the women’s collections. Givenchy’s recent menswear presentation at Paris Fashion Week further demonstrated the brand’s commitment to pushing boundaries in men’s fashion.
Participating in Pitti Uomo holds great significance for Givenchy as it provides a platform to showcase its menswear designs in a grand setting at the beginning of the menswear season. Waight Keller’s innovative approach, combining sportswear with couture elements, will undoubtedly captivate the audience and offer a sneak peek into the future of menswear at Givenchy. The collaboration between Givenchy and Pitti Uomo is set to excite fashion enthusiasts and industry insiders alike, as they eagerly anticipate the evolution of menswear from one of the most iconic luxury brands.
