RADICAL ARCHETYPES

2022.10.14

Givenchy FW 2022 accessories are a modern take on contemporary archetypes. A bold collection of radical and innovative elements.

The straightforward vocabulary that Creative Director Matthew M. Williams developed at Givenchy infuses a series of radical and revolutionary accessories, which are key pieces of the Women Fall-Winter 22 Collection. The TK-360 sneaker, first introduced as a men’s sneaker for Pre-Fall 2022, immediately became a Givenchy essential and for this season it promptly crossed over into women’s wear: the TK-360+ plays as a brilliant innovation exploration of form and function. Constructed in a single piece, fusing technical and visual innovation, it allows to walk directly on the knit as its bold silhouette features a classic stretch knit upper that is fully integrated with the sole. The dynamism of its design is further enhanced through grid-like grooves, fresh colors and contrasting accents of pink and violet. For the Fall-Winter 22 the brand also introduces the new G-Hobo bag, an elevated fresh take on Givenchy’s distinctive hardware which sets the tone for today fashion archetypes, channeling feminine nonchalance and an avant-garde sense of style. Further expanding Matthew M. Williams lexicon, it blends a soft, minimalistic shape with elegant materials, featuring a body in luxurious grained leather or python, a sensual suede lining and a strap closure with a leather-incrusted lock. Visually opulent yet warm and understated, this elemental hobo style comes in two sizes: a generous medium design or a compact yet roomy mini version. Classic shades of black, ivory, and tan grained calf leather or black python characterize the medium size, while the the mini G Hobo comes in black, ivory or seasonal shades of celadon, dark orange, and ultraviolet. A modern take on contemporary archetypes, Givenchy Fall-Winter 22 accessories research plays as a bold statement about today’s fashion.

“I really wanted to create a synthesis of powerful, sophisticated femininity, with an interplay of multiple American and Parisian influences, sports and craftsmanship.”
