If you like Givenchy in general, you’re going to like Givenchy’s Pre-Fall 2015 bags. The brand has found a groove over the past few seasons, and fans eat up its special mixture of runway luxury and streetwear cool. The new collection’s bags are those we’ve all come to expect from the company, and that means they’re pretty covetable.
Givenchy isn’t reinventing the wheel with this collection, but as we discussed a couple weeks ago, the brand is reinventing its beloved Nightingale in a smoother, sleeker form. The line’s lookbook is heavy on those new bags, with fewer of the Antigonas and Lucrezias than we’ve come to expect.
This bags are still represented, though, and they’re mostly in the standard Givenchy palette of blacks and greys. There’s also some baby pink and a few western details mixed in this season, as well as a digitized, geometric black-and-tan print that steps away from the popular florals the brand has done for the past several seasons.
Below, check out the Givenchy handbag lookbook. If you see something you like, you’re in luck; many of these bags have already started arriving for pre-order at Neiman Marcus and Saks.
I quite like the new smooth Nightingales. Looks smooshy and luxurious. Not so much for the Western-style, black bags with brown accents- it’s hard to put those colors together without it looking cheap, IMO.
In love with #40 & #43. I wonder what the price is.
The small is $2,190, medium is $2,450
I love Givenchy bags! Beautiful…
Givenchy is usually not on my radar, but numbers 2, 10, 24, 40, and 42. Obviously, I love that Pandora box bag.
Any of the bags shaped like #9 are just weird. I feel like you’re being cheated out of bag space. Not liking that shape at all.
Ugh. They’ve changed the Lucrezia too. I loved the original version.
I think it’s time I buy the Pandora Box…:))
They give me a very Alexander Wangy vibe… for some odd reason.
I’m a bit of a Givenchy newbie and am wondering the difference between Givenchy and House of Givenchy? Is it the higher and more mid market distinction similar to Marc by Marc Jacobs vs Marc Jacobs? Are House of Givenchy purses known for their quality? And insight would be most welcome!
House of Givenchy is just another way of referring to Givenchy. There is only one brand, no diffusion lines like Marc by Marc Jacobs.
not diggin’ the cow boy look
I love that pixelated pattern! I may do that sequined pandora box bag… Kinda bummed that they’re not doing the backpack in that pixelated pattern. It’s so cool, and leopard skin is just, ugh. Usually such a fan of Givenchy, but those leopard skins and western style bags are not doing it for me. Even though I like the redesign. I have the Lucrezia in a light pink, and those ridges are looking a bit worn, so I imagine this design will age better.

You can’t go wrong with basic black. That’s the message I’m getting here.
I love the new Lucrezia. I have the older version and the protruding spines are pain in the arse. And the sharp metal feet hurt my thighs when I put the bag on my lap and I’m wearing shorts
#27, #35 I don’t care for the rest.
