Perfect for back-to-work commutes and busy city days, the Givenchy Medium Pandora adds a relaxed-luxe edge to everyday outfits. Carry it from desk to dinner and on weekend escapes when you need effortless style with space for your essentials.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What are the measurements of this Medium Pandora and what typically fits inside? A: This piece measures approximately 38 × 35 × 20 cm with a handle drop of about 18 cm and a shoulder strap drop of about 46 cm. It comfortably carries daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, make-up pouch, water bottle, umbrella and an A4 document folder. A slim 13-inch laptop or tablet may fit depending on its case and how you pack—please compare your device to the measurements listed here.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody and on the shoulder? A: Yes. The Pandora is designed with a single rolled top handle for hand carry and a detachable shoulder strap for on-shoulder or crossbody wear. On this item the strap drop is approximately 46 cm; please review the photos to confirm adjustability for your preferred drop.
Q: How is the Pandora meant to sit when worn? A: The Pandora is known for its relaxed, softly boxy silhouette that drapes close to the body. It has a slightly slanted top zip and a low centre of gravity, so it tends to sit comfortably against the hip when worn crossbody or on the shoulder rather than feeling bulky.
Q: What compartments and closures does this bag have? A: It features two exterior zip pockets for quick-access items, a wide top zip closure, and a fabric-lined interior with additional pockets for organisation. The design makes it easy to see and reach your belongings without rummaging.
Q: Is the Medium Pandora still produced by Givenchy? A: The Pandora debuted in 2009 and has appeared in various materials and sizes over the years. Availability can vary by season and region; it is widely available on the pre-owned market and has been offered by select retailers in recent seasons. If you need current boutique availability, please contact us and we can check for you.
Q: What leather is this and how does it wear over time? A: This piece is crafted from brown wrinkled, aged leather, a finish often associated with the Pandora line for its intentionally distressed look. It is designed to develop softness and character with wear; minor creases and variations are part of the aesthetic. As with most leathers, it can show scuffs on high‑friction points like corners and handles over time.
Q: How should I care for this leather? A: Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt, then dry immediately. Avoid prolonged exposure to water, oils, perfumes and heat or direct sunlight, and minimise rubbing against light-coloured fabrics to prevent colour transfer. Store loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help maintain the shape and reduce creasing.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information for this listing. For this piece, a dust bag and the detachable shoulder strap are included. If you need confirmation about a specific item, please ask and we’ll be happy to help.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is examined by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, brand stamps and interior serial coding, cross‑referenced with brand references and known production details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide further photos or details on request.
Q: Are there any notable condition details I should be aware of? A: Overall this bag is in very good condition with a clean interior and shiny hardware showing light scratches. There are visible signs of darkening on the handle and some scuffing to the corners; please consult the photos and condition notes for a close look.
