Having joined Givenchy last September, Sarah Burton was one of the most eagerly awaited designers at Paris Fashion Week Fall\/Winter 2025-26. On March 7, the British designer, former right-hand woman and living memory of Lee Alexander McQueen, delivered her first ready-to-wear fashion show for the LVMH group’s fashion house, which delighted the front row as well as the press.<\/h4>\n

From the world of Bj\u00f6rk and David Bowie to that of Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Kennedy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This great divide between working-class London and the aristocracy of the City of Light<\/b> seems incongruous. But we must remember the modest origins of the founder of the House of McQueen<\/b>, who was creative director for Givenchy for five years<\/b> (1996-2001).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sarah Burton’s debut at Givenchy<\/b>, herself after thirty years at McQueen<\/b>, was undoubtedly one of the most scrutinized moments of this Paris Fashion Week<\/b> for fall-winter 2025-26.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Paradoxically, this show of force in ready-to-wear also aimed to revive the couture soul of this House<\/b> founded by the son of a marquis, Hubert de Givenchy, in 1952, which, for at least eight years<\/b>, with Claire Waight Keller (2017-2020) and then Matthew M. Williams (2020-2024) seemed to be stuck in a phase of introspection<\/b>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Moreover, there was a sense of a couture spirit and futuristic energy<\/b> that seemed to infuse the multiple silhouettes presented, all with powerful femininity.<\/p>\n

As is often the case during a creative update, the new recruit immerses himself in the archives of the House<\/b>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sarah Burton, a prominent figure in fashion and confidante of the late Lee Alexander McQueen<\/b>, was no exception, relying on patterns designed by Hubert de Givenchy dating from the year the fashion house was founded.<\/b><\/p>\n

This inspiration is evident from the opening<\/b> silhouette, a black fishnet top stamped \u201cGivenchy 1952\u201d.<\/p>\n
