Aiming to continuously push the boundaries of fashion, Riccardo Tisci has teamed up with visual artist Benjamin Shine for his latest Givenchy x Benjamin Shine collection.
This unisex sweatshirt line features black-and-gray as well as pink-and-white color schemes that display Givenchy's signature religious iconography. Known for his marriage of couture and street sensibilities, Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci proves he can do no wrong with this versatile and artfully conceived collaboration.
Tisci's Madonna imagery is abstracted by Benjamin Shine who creates his depictions made entirely out of tulle. The Givenchy x Benjamin Shine collection reinterprets the couture label's iconic imagery with its handmade construction. After skipping the couture season, Riccardo Tisci will be selling the custom pieces at Givency Haute Couture salons thanks to their distinct design and carefully crafted quality.
