riccardo tisci

riccardo tisci -lrb- ; born 1974 in taranto , italy -rrb- is an italian fashion designer .
he studied in italy at the design istituto d'arte applicata in cantu until the age of 17 , and then graduated from london 's central saint martins academy in 1999 .
in 2005 , tisci was named creative director for givenchy women 's haute couture and ready-to-wear lines .
in may 2008 he was additionally named as menswear and accessories designer of the givenchy men 's division .
tisci 's apparent fascination with gothic touches -lrb- dark , languid dresses for fall couture -rrb- and space-age minimalism -lrb- one ready-to-wear show featured white-clad models drifting around a sterile-white sphere -rrb- has drawn new attention to the givenchy brand .
reviews and output so far have been mixed and inconsistent , but many , including influential fashion critics -lrb- such as cathy horyn of `` the new york times '' and suzy menkes of the `` international herald tribune '' -rrb- have homed in on tisci 's conceptual leanings , as well as his future potential for revitalizing the givenchy brand and infusing it with his precision and imagination .
