The squared 4G logo plaque anchors each temple of these oversized Givenchy sunglasses, set against an ivory-toned plastic frame that sweeps outward in a broad, softly angular silhouette. Gradient brown lenses shade the eyes, their surface catching the light with a subtle transition that recalls the era’s fascination with both glamour and utility.
Gold-tone hardware details punctuate the temples, with the signature ‘GIVENCHY PARIS’ serif logo printed in gold along the inner arm—a detail consistent with the maison’s late 1970s to early 1980s eyewear. The construction is lightweight yet substantial, with wide arms and a gently curved bridge for comfort during extended wear.
This pair dates to the Hubert de Givenchy era (1952–1995), when the house’s accessories were marked by restrained luxury and a preference for graphic motifs, here embodied in the squared ‘4G’ emblem. The period’s characteristic serif branding and logo hardware signal a licensed production, typical of European eyewear in this decade.
