Erykah Badu X Givenchy SS2014
And the internet will break down, again, soon as more of these gorgeous images by Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott surface.
Riccardo Tisci is taking Givenchy to magical places. Period. Apart from a brilliant collection, he is being creative with the campaign casting and overall direction as well. (the campaigns from the past three years have almost all been phenomenal)
Erykah Badu is one of the featured faces in the brand's SS 2014 campaign along with Asia Chow, Riley and Maria Borges. This season's campaign is already making history in the industry, as it's the first campaign to feature only women of color.
“There was a lot of talk this season in fashion [about designers not promoting diversity]. I was one of the persons who ended up not being touched by this. I discovered Joan Smalls, I discovered Maria [Borges]. I’ve always been supporting them. For me, I grew up in a family and I grew up in a culture, an education, that we are all the same.”
