Givenchy Tinhan Tico Hobo

It has been a while since I’ve seen a truly original design that makes sense. I am so impressed with how time and again Givenchy has wowed me with simple yet unique bags. This hobo has an architectural element to it, it seems so very engineered but it is not fussy or muddled. The V cut out under the handles is super smart, it maintains the right proportions of the handles to go with the overall design but it allows room for an actual arm to fit in. Designers do a shorter handle because it looks better on the shelf but then you take it home and hate them for it. The sides unzip to expand the girth but I love that it also adds another focal point – it looks great both zipped up or down. The leather is slightly crinkled, also comes in black and a denim which are way more crinkly, which I don’t like. The denim (which they call navy) is really bad, looks like acid wash jeans. At Barneys New York for $1445.

  3. I don’t care much about this one. It looks a v-neck over a undershirt of a bag.

    Love the color, but it`s like it has this sharp design I`ve always avoided. WOuldn`t know how to make myself understood. It`s the kind of bag I`d get tired of so easily…

    Aww it sort of looks like the head of a tulip

  6. Oooh… I love the shape of the bag. Does it come in any other colors? Didn’t look it on the Barney’s site. Be super cool in pastels for the summer. :)
