Givenchy’s hard carry is the Voyou

The effortless cool of blasé.

By Asha Farisha

French love a laid-back, indifference when it comes to their preference in style. For a bag that get’s it, look no further than Givenchy’s Voyou.

The Givenchy Voyou expresses the Parisian style of complete insouciance, resonating with those who appreciate a bag for what it is — not its label nor status. The Voyou’s exterior itself manifests in a beautiful paradox with a relaxed silhouette — interpreted with a slouchy “V”-shape — yet the luxurious and supple calfskin define the volume.

It is a study in contrasts — an air of indifference on the surface, with details upon closer inspection that elevate the Voyou beyond the ordinary. Subtle yet alluring embellishments — the metallic Givenchy lettering and signature hardware — add a touch of luxury without screaming for attention. The Voyou is a bag for those who appreciate quiet confidence, its origins as a design unburdened by creative constraints solidify its place as a relaxed yet sophisticated companion. It probably does not matter who the creative director at the house of Givenchy is.
