Hubert de Givenchy was born in 1927 and has discovered his love for fashion since he was only 10 years old. After years debating whether to pursue his dream of becoming a fashion designer or to follow his parents commands for him to become a lawyer, Hubert de Givenchy took the risk to pursue his love. He started out as an apprentice to Robert Piquet and later became the assistant to Lucien LeLong in 1947. Hubert de Givenchy finally developed his confidence and began his own fashion castle in the year 1952 along the streets of Paris, France. Only 1 year after its inception, Givenchy's fashion won him critical acclaim inside many woman's heart. His success in designing simple organdy blouses and cotton pleated skirts quickly and famously spread around Europe especially to Italy and Germany. His haute couture designs unexpectedly impressed the fashion industry. In addition, Audrey Hepburn's love for Givenchy's design and her representation for Givenchy's fashion further built upon Givenchy's popularity world-wide including the United States and Asia. In fact, his styles can be seen in almost every major Audrey Hepburn Movie including "Sabrina", "Funny Face", "Love in the Afternoon", "Charade", and of course, "Breakfast at Tiffany's". Today, Hubert de Givenchy can be named one of the most popular french fashion designers in the 1900s.
