Let's Fall In Love!

Jeanne Lanvin (18867-1946) was a French fashion designer extrodinaire and founder of the Lanvin fashion house which is the oldest fashion house still in operation. Lanvin was famous for its signature fragrance "Arpege" which was presented in 1927. Soon Lanvin became the leading couture house for men's, womens children's and home fashions. Modern gowns and day wear were a huge hit and beautiful jewelry was designed to enhance the fashions. Many famous designers including Castillo, Claude Montana, and Bergere desgned for Lanvin. Today's Lanvin Style is led by Alber Elbaz who's 2008 runway show was partly responsible for the recent trend in Art deco designs in fashion and jewelry. He entered Lanvin in 2001 and since his artistic directorship began, he has taken the old school couture house into an innovative and trend setting environment. Elbaz has created fluid, simple goddess dresses that make women beautiful-nothing else. In an interview with Cathy Horyn of the New York Times Elbaz said, "I remember a woman telling me that every time she wore a Lanvin dress, men wanted to sleep with her." Elbaz said, "Later, I thought that I'd rather she fell in love."
Now we know why a hip, young designer would want to be in an old school couture house.......because he is a hopeless romantic!
