GIVENCHY IS THE SPECIAL GUEST AT PITTI UOMO

Givenchy’ Clare Waight Keller will show her first stand-alone men’s collection as a special guest of the Pitti Uomo trade show held in Florence from June 11-14. Waight Keller, the British designer and artistic director of the LVMH group Maison since 2017, will present the new men’s wear line-up with a special event on June 12.

“It is a huge honor for us to host the runway debut of the Givenchy men’s collection under the creative direction of Clare Waight Keller,” says Lapo Cianchi, Pitti Immagine’s director of communication and special events. “A strong, modern and elegant vision: it is the perfect project for Pitti Uomo. I am certain that the atmospheres and spaces of Florence will offer Givenchy further aesthetic and symbolic motivations for concentrating on men’s fashion”. The Pitti event follows Waight Keller’s well-received small men’s presentation held in Paris in January.
