Sarah Burton’s debut show for Givenchy was a star-studded affair, with A-listers such as Rooney Mara, Vanessa Kirby, and Gwendoline Christie in attendance. The singer Raye, fresh off her performance at the Oscars, also made an appearance, rocking a sparkly dress designed by Burton.
The collection drew inspiration from founder Hubert de Givenchy’s first collection in 1952, featuring intricate embroidery and a mix of patterns and fabric swatches. Mara, who has been the face of Givenchy fragrance L’Interdit since 2018, praised Burton’s work, recalling her own experience wearing one of the designer’s dresses while pregnant at the Oscars.
Yseult, who walked in Burton’s final show at McQueen, was moved to tears by the inclusion of plus-size models in the Givenchy debut. The singer praised the collection for its leather biker jacket dress, patent leather shoes, and tailoring, calling it “amazing” and “f***ing cool.”
Overall, the show felt like a family reunion, with guests embracing and expressing excitement for Burton’s new venture at Givenchy. The singer Raye, who will soon kick off a French tour, shared her admiration for the designer and the collection, while expressing pride and support for Burton’s decision to include a diverse range of models on the runway.
