As part of his Fall/Winter 2021 collection for Givenchy, Creative Director Matthew M. Williams introduced key new accessories for men and women that offer a bold contemporary look, while perfectly embracing the House’s DNA
4G Handbag
With its architectural lines and distinctive look, the new 4G Handbag perfectly embodies William’s new codes for the house of Givenchy. With its sharp symmetrical lines and a bold attitude this bag which first debuted in the Pre-Fall 2021 collection, present the perfect design codes that Hubert de Givenchy made synonymous with the brand, paired with William’s contemporary vision for the house. To achieve a sleek, graphic shape, Williams worked with Givenchy’s expert craftsmen to select the finest, full-grain box calfskins. Its leatherwork offers the finest in savoir-faire with sleek attention to detail.
The bag’s clasps are designed using a highly technical process with carefully selected hardware materials. The bag comes in two styles; a flap bag and a chain bag. The 4G flap bag comes with an elegant removable strap that can be adjusted by its metal brackets to be worn on the shoulder or across the body. The 4G Chain bag features the house’s new custom-made G-link chain in silver or gold which can be adapted as desired. Each back features an interior with several pockets in various sizes. The 4G bag is available in a number of colours including black and ivory as well as seasonal shades including avocado green, baby pink, red and dark khaki. Special finishes include an all-over 4G monogram effect, achieved through high-frequency debossing on leather for a 3D effect. A design in snake-printed lambskin creates a highly realistic impression of exotic leather; while a version in dark emerald green python with gold hardware is also available.
Cut-Out Bag
The futuristic Cut-Out bag has been introduced in new versions for the Fall/Winter 2021 season. The distinctive V-shaped accessory is now available in padded, grooved lambskin, inspired by vintage car seats. This unique treatment is achieved using an intricate process of high-frequency wave techniques to bring a new attitude to the bag. It also features the new silver-finish G-Cube chain; an emblematic hardware signature developed by Matthew M. Williams for Givenchy.
For the first time, a longer cross-body G-Cube chain is also presented in order to enhance the versatility and wearability of the bag, according to each woman’s preference. The Cut-Out in padded leather is available in mini and small sizes, in padded matte lambskin (black) or patent leather (lilac). It is also available in smooth box leather with a subtle glossy sheen, in black and chestnut.
Givenchy Venture
For men, the Givenchy Venture is a new highly adaptable accessory that offers both style and versatility. Two backpacks and belt bags can be worn according to each individual’s taste and needs. The backpacks can be worn on the front or back of the body, while the belt bag doubles up as a cross-body piece. Inspired by a professional runner’s backpack this piece is fitted with a hardness and zip-off pouch that can be replaced by the larger belt bag.
They have also been designed in a way that makes it possible to add other item’s such as Givenchy’s new water bottle, as well as securing other essentials like a blanket when needed. This new set is available in black nylon as well as a number of modern versions that can be used to create a mix-and-match look. The belt bag comes in nylon or croc-embossed leather.
