PART 26 - My vintage couture collection is not just about fashion designers from Paris to London to Tokyo to New York! It it also based on high end accessories and accoutrement's.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Givenchy
Audrey Hepburn was Hubert's favorite patron or matron and Breakfast at Tiffany's was all about "THE LITTLE BLACK DRESS". Other famous patrons include the Guinness, Grimaldi and Kennedy families, who famously wore Givenchy clothes to the funeral of John F. Kennedy.
Givenchy is a member of Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture et du Pret-a-Porter.
"Francisco Medavogs collection started off as a small sampling of some European couture designs to help him study FASHION design. By looking at the French seams and other intricacies, he learned about couture construction through the true masters of design. This hobby quickly became a collection of more than 25,000 fashion items, primarily 20th century European designs, with a number of them extending back to the 1920s and 30s.
"At first, I didn't quite understand why so many people were interested in seeing these clothes," says Francisco. "For me, the clothes were simply great examples of what I was able to study while at the Fashion Institute. Now, I feel that my collection is the beginning of a wonderful museum collection."
"I'd love to open the first American Fashion Museum, devoted solely to fashion and couture, similar to Zandra Rhodes' museum in London."

I watched "Funny Face" a few days ago and I didn't see this Audrey Hepburn outfit in the movie. I'll have to do some research and let you know Rango9.
