Givenchy’s spring 2011 couture showing gives way to another presentation this season with ten looks by designer Riccardo Tisci.

Perhaps the casting can be attributed the Eastern influence of the collection found in the delicate folds, structured shapes and warrior like headpieces inspired by Japanese artwork.
