Have to give it to Givenchy for making materials work. This leather sleeved check shirt, part of their Autumn 2011 collection, looks pretty strong on this model in the Ssense shop. While I am not usually a fan of leather mashed with browns, the  pebbled nature of the leather sleeves seems to work incredibly well in this application. Made in Portugal for those that like to know that stuff.

Givenchy’s Autumn/Winter 2010 accessories are up there. We showcase a few select items in leather from the collection. Tell us what you think. (cqc)

Not been affected whatsoever by the recession? Read on. You’ll need all the extra coins you have to get hold of this piece. At $1,045, it’s not one for the ‘nouveau rich’ as Karl Lagerfeld would say. It sounds odd to say, but fashion isn’t in fashion right now – so carrying a Givenchy backpack might not be the way to go if you’re rocking a workwear-inspired look. Everyone else is free to rock this to their heart’s content. You won’t be ‘on point’ or ‘bang on trend’, but you’ll have a good bag. (Aloha Rag)
