Givenchy is a company out of Paris. You may recognize them not for their sunglasses as much as their perfume. They have a very extensive line in both products. What you should know about Givenchy is that
it began in 1952 when Hubert de Givenchy opened the couture house. Audrey Hepburn was one of his main inspirations. In 1973 Givenchy finally released their first line of men's clothing. Since 1995 they have been a premier Haut Couture house that makes sunglasses as well as other fun and sporty items. They have unisex, female, and male sunglasses.
To start, the SGV084S is a female pair of sunglasses with Rhinestones in the frame. The lenses are a bit on the square side offering a metal nose piece and rather straight ear pieces. The ear pieces start out rather thick and then taper down to a comfortable level. This particular pair of sunglasses has red lenses and red ear pieces. It will usually sell for 148 pounds and above.
Another interesting style in the female line is the SGV087. They have the square lenses in a light black. The ear pieces and arms are curved just a little. What makes this pair interesting is the two prongs that come off the lenses and then go to the plastic model for the ear pieces. It offers more of a style to the otherwise standard pair. They will also hover around the 140 pound mark and above.
The SGV175 is a male pair of polarized lenses. This means that the lenses are darker to keep out the sun as well as the UV rays. They are a pretty simple pair with slightly rounded lenses. The frames are made of a special plastic material that doesn't break as easily as others might. The outside of the glasses are completely black, but they have red on the inside of the ear pieces. The ear pieces curve to hold them in place. This pair normally sells for 135 pounds and above depending on where you shop.
There are several different types of sunglasses through Givenchy including square, rectangular, oblong, and the rounded lenses. There will be something for everyone in the 2008 collection that spans about 62 items.
