New Givenchy Nightingale
The Givenchy classic Nightingale bag gets an update
The iconic Givenchy Nightingale, the house's first bag to see worldwide success since its introduction in 2006, is the bag that may very well have started the minimalist trend that is sweeping designs everywhere. Minimalism is key in the design of this piece and now Creative Director Riccardo Tisci has given an update to the Givenchy’s classic Nightingale Bag.
For the new Nightingale, Tisci adds "Over the years, the Nightingale bag has become an iconic piece reaching a diverse cross section of the market from young girls to more mature women alike. It's normal that people become very attached to their bag, carrying it everyday becomes almost an extension of them. I wanted to do something very special for the fans of the Nightingale." The New Nightingale Bag is set to release as part of the Fall 2015 Collection. It features a sleek and minimal design, minus the stitching on the body. It now has a thin adjustable and detachable leather strap. The bases of the handles are left simple and no longer bear the Givenchy logo.
