I am thinking of buying a cross3! I've come across some people that say that the leather is not good quality or the edges started scuffing badly after a monthly, with just mild usage. Any issues with yours since you bought it? Also wondering why wondering if there is different quality among made in Romania, Maldova, Italy, etc...TIA!

Weird! I haven't had any issues with mine - still looks as good as new. Mind you, I got the mockcroc version which might be hardier than their regular leathers!

This is NOT Valentino Garavani. It is Mario Valentino which is significantly cheaper and does copy other brands. I think this lesser brand counts on people confusing it for Valentino Garavani. TJ Maxx obviously did when deciding on pricing. I believe their bags usually cost around $500 USD.

Well! I did not think I could be more surprised, but there it is. Thanks for pointing that out - learned something new!

Hello all. Would like to ask if Givenchy uses black dustbags? I see only white dustbags but does the House use black ones too? Thanks!

Oo congratulations! I have the cross 3 in black croc and I LOVE it! I honestly thing givenchy is such an underrated design with so many gems - love that the cross3 can be worn casually as a crossbody, dressy as a clutch and also worn on the shoulder with the chain. love love love it!

Thank you ! I loved it so much I just got it in black ! I was looking high and low for it and got it for a steal at the Mall Firenze. I am SO happy I found it !

Same here! It has been more than a year and I wore it in the summer and in winter and it is still spotless! I love this bag honestly.

Bicester Village & La Vallée Village in Paris had it in croc red very recently!

I honestly love Givenchy, can't wait to get my hands on the Medium Antigona! Maybe once I get it I might be tempted by the Whip.

Yes, I've seen black ones too, from pre-Matthew Williamson era.

Does anyone recognize this Givenchy wallet? I've been trying to find any info regarding the style or the year, but nothing.

Does anyone here own and wear the Obsedia Hobo bag? The picture is the bag in Medium size. I am eyeing this bag because the nearest preloved shop is currently selling this and I am not sure to take the plunge or not

I don't own this bag, but I find it quite pretty, especially the handles. The classic shape should make it very user-friendly and easy to style. Regarding the straps: does the short one allow for wearing the bag on the shoulder, and does the long one on the longest setting allow for wearing it crossbody? That is, if that's at all relevant for you Also, how much is the asking price?

Hi everyone! I'm a bit new to the designer bag scene and just ordered the Givenchy Medium Moon Cutout Bag in Black. I am a bit confused about this bag and would love your opinion. The chain on the official Givenchy website looks removable. You can see that the chain has a cross bar going across as well as a small opening. However, I initially ordered this bag on Neiman and in person, the bag's chain looks different. The top link was a continuous loop, no opening and no crossbar. I ended up returning it because I wanted to option to choose between the leather strap and silver chain. I saw that the Gcube chain is being sold on SSENSE separately and it looks identical to the chain in the picture of the bag on Givenchy.

I've called several US boutiques and the Givenchy customer service and got mixed replies.

I'd love your opinion! thanks

Here's the link to the bag: https://www.givenchy.com/us/en-US/medium-moon-cut-out-bag-in-leather/BB50LWB1A4-001.html#start=1

Does anyone have experience with vintage Givenchy bags? Recently purchased one second hand, trying to confirm it's authenticity!
