		<description><![CDATA[Red has always been a dynamic color in the world of fashion. From the sizzling red lips of Marilyn Monroe to the trademark soles of Louboutins, the color has never failed to impress and entice. Even Cruella de Vil rocked eye-popping red that caught attention and put her down as one of the most frightening but best dressed villains in my book. Red’s sultry and smoldering reputation has yet to falter, but this season, it&#8217;s staking its claim as a classic on top of the previous connotations of bold, hot, and dangerous. Phillip Lim held nothing back with his Spring 2010 collection and let his aesthetic run wild. The product was a geometric red runway, with subtle red makeup, and a collection littered with powerful red pieces that could have easily grabbed the attention of anyone sitting in the last row. Both Givenchy’s Resort 2011 and Fall 2010 collections are so loaded with red that “the shop floors are stocked with the pieces that our girl has gotten attached to,” as Riccardo Tisci said. Tisci and Lim ensured that this spring and fall weren’t devoid of pieces that I would want to re-familiarize the usage of my credit card to. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Avant Guardian, like most women, is a fickle beast. Last week I hated Ricardo Tisci for ripping off my favorite dark mastermind, Tom Binns. This week I don&#8217;t care who he rips off, as long as he keeps doing what he&#8217;s doing. The Givenchy Fall ad campaign was just released, and it made me realize that I had completely overlooked the line. And I don&#8217;t just mean this season, either, I think I&#8217;ve been ignoring Givenchy for a good long time. Well, Mr. Tisci, if you&#8217;re reading this, please accept my deepest apologies. When I saw this photo I let out a stream of curse words so intense they probably insulted people in all five buroughs. But, for fuck&#8217;s sake, are you kidding me with the bleached eyebrows and Spock hair? Way to make it hurt so good, Givenchy. Then I went back and looked at every single piece from the runway show and felt complete shock and awe. Fuck all the haters who say the collection sucks, and &#8220;is better suited to Gareth Pugh&#8217;s collection&#8221;? (Why is that a bad thing, anyways?) This collection is back in black and dead sexy, and, oh my fucking god, is that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Givenchy recently debuted their Fall 2009 &#8220;fashion&#8221; accessories line by Riccardo Tisci. For anyone confused about how this line differs from their ordinary accessories line, &#8220;fashion&#8221; means cheaper, as in lower quality and (supposedly) higher accessibility. Apparently it also means ripping off hot new designers. The neon jewelry from the collection looks extraordinarily similar to the designs of Avant Guardian favorite, Tom Binns. Minus the off-kilter, dirty glam touches.  This comes months after TopShop sold out of their neon rhinestone necklaces, which retailed for under $70. All of the accessories in the Givenchy line will be under $500, which makes them only slightly cheaper than the original pieces by Binns, and sometimes not, depending on the piece. I don&#8217;t know about you, but if I&#8217;m going to buy a designer imposter, I want it to be significantly less expensive than the original, not a hundred bucks cheaper. There&#8217;s something terribly devious to me about a high end designer ripping off a hot new designer. Retailers like TopShop and H&#38;M bring high design to the masses, at prices that anyone can afford. But it seems to me like Givenchy is just plain stealing, and that&#8217;s not cool.
