Givenchy is certainly known at this point for its strong high fashion streetwear, especially due to their graphical prints in the last couple of seasons.

As part of their new Fall/Winter 2012 Collection, Givenchy introduces the above Brimless Leather Snapback Cap. Weird at first, we checked out the lookbook images of the collection, where the models all wear the cap backwards, in which case you do not even realize that the cap does not have a brim.
