Today’s Interior Redux features not one, but two homes of one of the greatest couturiers of the 20th century, Hubert de Givenchy. The designer owned three homes in France, and early last year, we looked at the designer’s country estate — Le Jonchet (see it here), where he permanently resides today, at the age of 89.
