You wouldn't expect anything less from a bag inspired by the art of whip-making.

Shortly after joining the Maison, <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/fashion-awards-2018-winners-clare-waight-keller-gucci-off-white-more">Clare Waight Keller</a> shared her belief that&nbsp;&quot;Givenchy stands for a powerful woman&quot;. Indeed, we&#39;ve seen that reflected in her designs and most recently at <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/givenchy-spring-summer-2019-collection-video-i-am-your-mirror-lea-colombo">Givenchy&#39;s Spring 2019 show</a>, where&nbsp;female models strode down the runway in&nbsp;leather jackets, army pants and tuxedo jackets &mdash; pieces&nbsp;borrowed from the boys but, thanks to&nbsp;Keller&#39;s couture training, were rendered formidably elegant&nbsp;for the Givenchy woman. And her weapon of choice this season? The Whip handbag, a boxy offering with sharply-cut edges that models <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion-week/givenchy-spring-summer-2019-clare-waight-keller-review-photo-gallery">wielded like a shield on the runway</a>.&nbsp;

Available in three sizes (small, medium and large), the Whip commands attention with its bold silhouette and a cutout handle&nbsp;lined&nbsp;with woven leather strips alluding to the bag&#39;s inspiration: the art of whip-making. Elsewhere on the&nbsp;bag, you&#39;ll&nbsp;find other details associated with traditional whips, namely leather braiding and knots that have been&nbsp;perfected by the Maison&#39;s craftsmanship.&nbsp;

The Whip can be carried as a handbag or across the body with a strap, but for off-duty days you can even go hands-free and opt for the belt bag version. Both the Whip handbag and belt bag come in an array of soft colours that balance&nbsp;out the bag&#39;s toughness, such as pistachio, yellow, taupe and <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/Culture/pantone-colour-of-the-year-2019-living-coral">Pantone&#39;s 2019 Colour of the Year</a>, coral.&nbsp;

On top of these, the Whip handbag is also available in three types of aquatic snakeskin: Karung with a bright yellow handle and strap, graphic Elaphe with a black handle and strap, and a show-stealing emerald green Ayers with a royal blue handle and strap.
