It wasn’t that long ago that Givenchy was just another luxury brand in LVMH’s significant stable. A few years ago, though, a streetwear sensibility started to leak into Riccardo Tisci’s gothic leanings and couture mastery, and ever since then, the brand’s signature graphic T-shirts, luxe sneakers and, more than anything, iconic handbags have been on the backs, feet and arms of basically every famous person on the planet. Today, we’re here to investiage the popularity of one piece in particular: the Givenchy Contrast 4G Embroidery Hoody.
Despite being years old, the Antigona seems to be only growing in popularity, with even the most basic colors and materials sometimes hard to find toward the end of the season. In one version or another, its hung from the arms of the most beautiful and talented women in the world in amazing numbers, and we’ve collected several dozen pieces of proof of its popularity below.

I actually love the slouchy look of the antigona. I love the character of it that you know its well loved than having looking pristine and perfect.
The Black Antigona has been on the top of my bag wish list for several months. I just hope it stays a classic inconsequently I hate spending so much money on “it” bags. I love Olivia’s croc version – its so elegant!
I love this particular article — makes me want to buy a Givenchy bag myself! 😀
Love the antigona- though looking at all these pics really makes me think that the largest size is perhaps too large. I mean, it really looks like small luggage… But the mid size is just TO.DIE.FOR. I am in love with Sofia’s gray version and Rosie… Why is Rosie so perfect??? I look at her and think, ‘is this real life?’
givenchy g chain buckle belt item!!!
YEP. The medium size or even the small (not mini) is amazing!
Givenchy Kids Girls Tracksuits for Kids!
WANT!!
I love this bag but only on other people. On me (except for the size of the first one that Khloe carried), it feels too bulky. So for now, I will just enjoy looking at pics of other people carrying it!
It was the Kate Moss photo on Erlebniswelt-fliegenfischenShops that prompted me to run out and buy the large Antigona in black…
I really like Kourtney’s and Rosie’s grey one the best.
I simply adore the Antigona…I think it may even be one of the few bags to reach iconic status. It started slowly and grew in popularity instead of the manic obsession of some bags that become over exposed within a few years. I have a red croc stamped medium and I think the goatskin oxblood for fall is calling my name!
January Jones’ black Antigona with black hardware is the nicest!!

I liked Rachel Zoe’s best…
Considered the medium Antigona in shiny leather, but as it was impossible to find with SHW, I ended up with a black Sugar in small instead. Never looked back! Don’ t know why it took me all these tears to fall for it, I am completely obsessed with it now.
oops, should be ‘years’ not tears.
I don’t like this bags at all, too boxy for my taste. Thank God…..$$$$$$$$$$
