Black Givenchy Antigona

Buying pre-loved Givenchy

Pre-loved Black Givenchy Antigona — Black is the definitive, go-anywhere choice — the colourway that dates least and holds its value best. Designed by Riccardo Tisci and launched in 2011, the Antigona is defined by its trapezoid silhouette, angular structured panels and dual rolled top handles, with the recessed logo stamp its only branding. Every listing is indexed and price-checked for the UK resale market.

Givenchy was founded in Paris in 1952 by Hubert de Givenchy, whose long friendship with Audrey Hepburn shaped the house's reputation. Most pre-loved bags come from the Riccardo Tisci era (2005 to 2017): the structured, trapezoid Antigona and the softer, slouchier Pandora. The two wear differently. On an Antigona, check the corners, the base and the edges of the handles, where structured leather shows rubbing first; on a Pandora, look at the creasing and the condition of the zips. The leather used changes both the look and the asking price, so compare like with like, and check where a piece ships from before allowing for duty.
