Red leather and a small gold logo: a compact piece that shows the restraint Givenchy was known for. It holds only what is needed, organised with care, and carries the house's Parisian polish into an everyday object.
Givenchy red madras leather wallet, 1980s
This wallet was made by Givenchy in the 1980s. It is in red madras leather, finished on the front with a gold-tone metal logo, and measures 10 x 10 cm. Inside, separate compartments hold coins, notes and cards, so the compact format stays practical.
Small in size, precise in design.
Hubert de Givenchy founded his house in Paris in 1952 and led it until his retirement in 1995. His work was defined by clean lines and refined elegance, qualities that carried through to the accessories produced under his name during the 1980s.
The wallet was produced in France, and its construction reflects the attention to detail expected of a Parisian house: organised compartments and a single, discreet metal logo.
Small leather goods from the Hubert de Givenchy era are collected for their colour and finish. Bright leathers show wear readily, so wallets from the 1980s in very good condition are found less often.
Accessories from the Hubert de Givenchy era continue to attract collectors of French designer fashion.
Wallets were used daily, and many from the period show worn corners and faded colour. Well-kept examples are less common.
Bright, single-colour leather accessories have returned to contemporary styling, adding interest in original vintage pieces.
