Edited by Tania If booties are in this season, wait until you see the thigh-high cowboy boots which created a buzz at the Givenchy Spring 2009 Collection in Paris. The boots were worn with an almost-indecent, yet still uber-chic mid-thigh white frock and an exquisite black jacket. The theme of the show was **"Western Bondage"**, according to designer **Riccardo Tisci** himself. The virtually unknown Italian took over the **Givenchy** house way back in 2005 – and his **winter collection** last year showed critics that he's more than capable of running things, fashion-wise. Check out which other pieces are worth drooling over from the collection: _ ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-2_400x603.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-3_400x607.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-4_400x596.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-5_400x607.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-6_400x600.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-7_400x594.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-8_400x599.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-9_400x608.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-10_400x607.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-11_400x617.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-12_400x603.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-13_400x610.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-14_400x603.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-15_400x609.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-16_400x604.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-17_400x608.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-18_400x604.jpg) ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-19_400x603.jpg) And Riccardo Tisci himself: ![](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2008/10/givenchy-paris-fw-20_400x594.jpg) As Sarah Mower of Style.com put it – crazed lines will be forming for those thigh-high cowboy boots overnight, recession or no. The only sign that we've seen of the "**Western Bondage**" theme were a few items like an LBD with puffed sleeves and a crisscross front. All in all, the **Givenchy show** was a success – and I myself will be lining up once those boots are made available to fashion aficionados some time soon. **** Photo credit: Style.com_ ## Related Posts - [Erdem Surreal Romance from London Fashion Week Spr...](https://allwomenstalk.com/erdem-surreal-romance-from-london-fashion-week-spring/) - [Best Picks from Paris Fashion Week Spring 2009 ...](https://allwomenstalk.com/best-picks-from-paris-fashion-week-spring/) - [Fashion as Self-Esteem Booster?](https://allwomenstalk.com/fashion-as-self-esteem-booster/) - [Todd Lynn from New York Fashion Week ...](https://allwomenstalk.com/todd-lynn-from-new-york-fashion-week/) - [Angelina's Stylist Reveals Her Post-Baby Style ...](https://allwomenstalk.com/angelinas-stylist-reveals-her-post-baby-style/) - [dampg](https://allwomenstalk.com/dg-french-fashion-spring-from-milan-fashion-week/) - [Rihanna’s (Hit & Miss?)
