Hubert de givenchy

Born in Beauvais, northern France, in 1927, Hubert James Taffin de Givenchy was the son of nobility on his father’s side and an artistic tradition on his mother’s. His father passed away when Hubert was 3 and he was raised by his mother and maternal grandmother, who instilled in him a passion for creativity, fashion and fabrics informed largely by his grandfather’s extensive collection of clothes from around the world. An obsession that grew from a young age, family legend has it that it was an aborted attempt aged 10 to run away from home and meet his idol, Cristóbal Balenciaga, that convinced Givenchy's mother to abandon her wish for him to become a lawyer and allow him to pursue fashion.
