Puss, in BOOTS [Givenchy Pre-Fall 2012]

You can't help but fall in love with the footwear in Riccardo Tisci's latest Pre-Fall collection for Givenchy. And it's certainly not at the expense of the clothes. Boxy yet lean jackets dominated the collection -- many with oversized lapels and mixed media, a major trend for pre-fall. Fur hats and long leather gloves finished off the almost minimal look. But back to the boots! Tisci opted for consistency in the shape: knee high, covered to the toes and with a single strap at the top; but showed variety in the materials, using leather, tweed, pony hair and even crocodile. I'm predicting long waiting lists and store riots next fall when these boots hit stores. The likes of which will rival the frenzy caused by Alexander Wang's Freja booties from Spring 2010.
