The steel risers that dotted the runway were perfect for showing off the drama of Kendall Jenner’s pale pink lace slip gown: Tight through the bodice, suspended by sparkly straps and then exploding mid-thigh into a fringe of long silk tassels.

Showing 11 couture looks alongside his spring men’s wear, Givenchy’s Riccardo Tisci called them “bad girls” — the girlfriends of the swarthy fellows dressed in rugged denim and penitentiary overalls, for prison and workwear were the designer’s twin themes.

Made of lace in pretty colors like yellow and sky blue, they were sheer enough to show off the little nothings worn underneath, occasionally sparkling with embedded crystals or big star-shaped sequins. Frankie Rayder had shrugged a long cardigan over her black gown, the placket demarcated with heavy chain and slashed for an off-the-shoulder drama.
