Creative director and designer Matthew M. Williams introduces the new Givench-Y2K that brings a nostalgic aesthetic for the Spring/Summer 2023 season. The new range includes slouchy sweatsuits, bags, high-tech sunglasses, shredded knitwear designs, belts with studded detail, and slip-on boots.

To nod to the era's past, the aforementioned sweatsuits are baggy in shape and it is paired perfectly with the sporty sneaker designs that take on the TK-360 as the base foundation. Notably, the accessories take on a playful angle and angular shapes at that as well, with dramatic frame shapes that create a reflective 'G' shape. It holds together some large reflective lenses for a dramatic look for the warmer seasons of the year.
