It is hard to believe that it is only three seasons since Guilliaume Henry relaunched Carven after its couture heyday in the middle of the twentieth century. Henry has since become known for creating classic, beautifully tailored items for a reasonable price. After creating the perfect camel coat for Autumn/Winter 2010, for Spring Henry created silk nude suits, chic blazers, evening gowns, digitally printed dresses and a shocking lilac suit. What is so attractive about the Carven label is the versatility of each piece, these items could be worn in a variety of ways and on a day to day basis, although the final look of a striking black evening dress would not look out of place on the red carpet. Each look was accessorised with a pair of plain court shoes with a bow at the back which resembled bunny ears, adding a twist to each look. Henry showed his abilities as a couturier, by creating a few extrovert pieces alongside the more versatile. Describing his third collection as 'Bourgeois, but with a nasty side', Guilliaume Henry created a gorgeous, understated collection showing promise for seasons to come.
