The French luxury fashion house Givenchy has expanded its iconic handbag family with the Voyou Bucket handbag collection — a bucket-shaped silhouette named after French slang for a mischief-maker.
At the heart of this chic product, the design emphasizes an impertinent, effortless attitude. Givenchy's Voyou Bucket handbag incorporates a leather drawstring closure that actively shapes the bag's form. As such, the piece is versatile and allows for three carrying methods — a top handle for handheld elegance, an adjustable shoulder strap for casual draping, and a crossbody strap for hands-free convenience.
Crafted from smooth, shiny calf leather with a fine grain and glossy finish, the luxury label makes this silhouette available in ivory, light pink, chocolate, black with gold-toned hardware, or cobalt blue. These chic nuances are paired with tasteful silver-toned hardware.
