Givenchy Spring/Summer 2010 Menswear Collection













For spring/summer 2010, designer Riccardo Tisci imbued Givenchy's menswear collection with his signature hip-hop swagger, gladiator influences and Middle Eastern-like mosaics.

And that's precisely what it was- there was the gold star motif, the leggings-under-shorts silhouette (WHICH I LOOOOOVE), the gold gladiators, the trousers with the built-in cumberbunds... Here is a designer that is challenging how men should dress, and in the process comes up with what can only be described as male couture.
