In contrast with Gaultier collection, Designer Ricardo Tisci, head designer at Givenchy shows a different side of the Virgin Mary, “The Madonna.” For Catholic, the image of the Virgin Mary is a holy representation, worthy of veneration, however this is not the case in other branches of Christianity, some protestant streams do not recognize Mary as a holy character. However the figure of the Madonna has been able to transcend barriers. “Some liberal Protestant women of the middle decades of the nineteenth century turned to Mary as a compelling and unifying symbol. Separating her from both Roman Catholic doctrine and Protestant anxieties, they considered the Madonna as a symbol of divine attributes considered 'feminine' in the terms of the day compassion, tenderness and mercy(15)”. In this representation the role of Mary as a mother of Jesus takes the spotlight, and the values of motherhood are stressed. “The Madonna is a metaphor of a compassionate Christian deity, earth mother, and emblem of liberation. Around her image gather the powerful emotions of the mother, the hopes of the poor and outcast, and the longing to restore a sense of divine immanence”.
