I think I might have a fashion orgasm. The sheer silks, in stark silhouettes, fine details, in a monochromatic collection... Ay, ya ya!!

My 2 fav pieces from the collection. All pics courtesy of style.com
Simple color palette, fabric continuity and extravagant detailed handwork was the formula Riccardo Tisci pulled off for the 10 piece Haute Couture collection for the Givenchy Fall 2011 couture show held yesterday in Paris. Don't let the subtle and understated white mislead your curiosity. Tisci geniously plays with tulle, tiger eye pearls, and crystals to suggest ostrich skin in one gown. While in others cutouts, peekaboo fringe, hand curled feathers, and degrede beading that changed colors and went from shiny to matte all play major parts in the successful collection. I'm personally rating it a success!
