Lightweight, effortlessly layered items are included in the Givenchy Plage line, which also includes beach hats, tote bags, and swimwear. For ladies, stylish skirts or linen pyjama pants go well with crop tops, tank tops, flowy blouses and terry cloth cover-ups. Translucent materials and silky textures come to life when the sun sets, making them ideal for glitzy evenings by the sea.
From his inaugural collection in February 1952, Monsieur de Givenchy's love for linen was clear; its refinement and notion of separates captivated buyers. During his whole remarkable career, he was very fond of a linen coat that came from his Atelier. Givenchy Plage honours this heritage by updating the classic, eco-friendly fabric that withstands stains and ages gracefully.
Swimwear and ready-to-wear items are accessorised with jacquard terry cottons, which are opulent and cosy linens. They are available in coral or aquamarine colours, with navy nautical stripes or beautifully embroidered leopard designs bearing the 4G logo. Cover-ups come in jacket or caftan lengths, and are made of light fluid ivory silk linen, lemon printed silk twill, or sky blue striped linen. Summer knits with stripes, polos, and white denim staples go well with the new cork platform mules and sunglasses with butterfly frames. These timeless black, Havana, and white sunglasses are embellished with a golden 4G Liquid logo on the temples. Seasonal colours like coral and turquoise are also offered.
Men's pieces in the collection include Provencal linen pants and shirts with lemon prints that look well with basic pieces like Japanese seersucker, striped organic silk and structured linen shirts. Summer colours like bright red, blue, sandy beige, or ecru are predominant. A t-shirt has an original design called "Le Clos 52," which pays homage to Monsieur de Givenchy's estate and the year his couture firm started. This adaptable sculpture moves from the hustle and bustle of the city to the peace and quiet of the seashore with ease.
