6/27/2023 0 Comments Givency nightingale bag![]() ![]() The handles of the bag are thick, sturdy, and balanced. You gotta insert the hardware into the indented bag hook on the sides: I’ve worn this bag three different times and let me tell you, the strap made the bag so comfortable to wear! My LV Kensington is a pain to wear as a shoulder bag so I carry it by the handles.īy the way, the strap is quite special. The strap is wide and chunky so it won’t dig into your shoulders when carrying a packed bag. The bag wasn’t bought in the store but I have the care card, the tags, the leather swatch, the dust bag and the paper bag: It has two pockets and one zippered compartment. The bag comes with canvas covered interiors. It even fits my bag organizer with lots of room to spare for my foldable umbrella, long wallet, sunnies, and power bank! The Givenchy SA said if I wanted goatskin, I’d have to wait for the special edition or limited releases.Īctually, I would’ve gone for buffalo leather if I could because that’s the toughest leather Givenchy has to offer but I’m unsure if the new ‘gales came in this material.ĭespite getting this in small size, this bag is quite huge. Goat skin is even tougher and more water/scratch resistant than calfskin but unfortunately, the new ‘Gales only come in calfskin. I wish this bag came in goatskin, though. The leather is quite thick and it does weigh the bag down but I don’t mind at all.Ĭalfskin has a buttery pebbled texture and a smooth sheen. The material is calfskin, which is undoubtedly hardy and scratch-resistant. I could’ve gotten this in black but in the end, I chose a midnight blue, almost black in dim lighting. I didn’t get this exact color because it is prone to jean stain and I didn’t want to baby my bag. I mentioned a blog ago that I wanted something blue this year and that’s the reason why I got this bag in this color.Īctually, I was thinking of a lighter, brighter shade of blue, something cobalt like this bag my hubs checked out at Givenchy Shang-rila: That was the time I warmed up to the idea of getting a Nightingale instead of the Antigona. When Givenchy came out with a major Nightingale redesign, it was exactly what I wanted, a toned-down version of the original that pairs well with a casual ensemble. During my Japan trip, I kept trying the bag out but it was too dang expensive so I decided against it and went for the LV Speedy. Initially, I wanted an Antigona in small (sugar goatskin, please!). One that’s structured, simple, yet eye-catching. I didn’t want a trendy bag, I wanted a sleek, stylish purse that could stand the test of time. ![]() It was too slouchy and the aesthetics are the opposite of what I liked. The design looked busy with the silver hardware on the handles and the stitching in the middle. Here’s my latest bag and no, it’s not LV:Ī few years ago when the older Nightingale design was launched, I didn’t like it at all. I believe I promised a follow-up post on the Givenchy Nightingale and here it is.
