Givenchy

Hubert de Givenchy was born on February 21, 1927 and grew up in France. Growing up he thought he wanted a career in law even though he grew up enjoying sewing and fashion. Givenchy moved to Paris for University  which is when he decided he wanted a career in fashion. Hubert de Givenchy started his fashion house Givenchy in 1952. The house grew to  be loved by everyone rapidly. Givenchy's biggest muse was Audrey Hepburn. He designed most of her costumes for movies such as Funny Face, Sabrina, and that iconic little black dress she wore in Breakfast at Tiffany's. Givenchy sold his company in 1988 and retired in 1995. Today Riccardo Tisci is the creative director of the fashion house who's muse is Kim Kardashian.

Happy Birthday to the ever so lovely Audrey Hepburn whose elegance and class remains with us today.

Throwback Thursday: 1960's

The 1960's was a unique decade for fashion because it was completely different from the 1940's and 1950's. In the 60's the bikini went mainstream, mini skirts were introduced to the world, and bell bottom jeans became a "thing" thanks to hippies. Due to these fashion inventions and innovations, the 1960's was a very important and historic decade in fashion as well as one of my favourites next to the 1940's.
