“Dallas’s active social community, with their notable role in art and philanthropy and love for fashion, made the city a natural choice for Givenchy’s first store in Texas,” said Valerie Leon, Givenchy’s president of the Americas. “We feel that The NorthPark Center, with its elevated and engaged clientele, will be the ideal home for introducing our brand to the market.”
The store carries a full array of Givenchy ready-to-wear and accessories for women and men, as well as seasonal capsule collections. The location debuts with Givenchy’s fall 2024 collection and a robust men’s offering that will include suiting, shirting and various accessories.
As reported, Givenchy named Sarah Burton as its new creative director earlier this month. The British designer, who spent her entire fashion career at Alexander McQueen in London, became Givenchy’s eighth designer — and its second female couturier.
She is expected to present her first designs for Givenchy during Paris Fashion Week in March.
At the Dallas store, the women’s offering features Givenchy’s eveningwear, signature sharp tailoring and denim, as well as a wide selection of the season’s statement accessories including various iterations of the Voyou bag, a new take on the classic Antigone called the Antigone Cube, and Givenchy’s iconic Shark Lock boots in leather, strass and the popular cowboy style.
The decor spotlights the brand’s latest retail concept, which leverages contrasting tones and materials. Everything from the store facade to the interior ties back to the natural stone-gray palette, and an archival tiger print fabric from Hubert de Givenchy’s home provides a pop of color to the seating upholstery.
Upon entering the store, guests are greeted by women’s and men’s handbags and accessories, followed by a room dedicated to footwear. Women’s ready-to-wear will occupy the third space, following by men’s ready-to-wear.
