I DON’T THINK I CAN SELECT THE RIGHT CHOICE OF WORDS TO BEST DESCRIBE HOW LUSH THESE BAGS LOOK, SO I’M JUST GOING TO LET THE IMAGES SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES IN THIS CASE. I JUST KNOW THAT I WANT ONE OF EACH!!!
TO SEE A LANVIN COLLECTION, WHETHER IT’S MEN’S OR WOMEN’S, STRIDING DOWN THE RUNWAY IN FRONT OF YOUR VERY OWN EYES OR EVEN UP CLOSE IN THE SHOWROOM IS A REAL TREAT FOR ANY FASHION ENTHUSIAST. LANVIN TRULY RENEWS YOUR FAITH IN FASHION AS YOU CAN SEE HOW METICULOUS EACH DETAIL IS THOUGHT OUT AND HOW LAYERED THE COLLECTION REALLY IS. YOU THINK YOU KNOW WHAT YOU MAY BE SEEING BUT UP CLOSE, IT’S REVEALED THAT THE SNAKESKIN PRINT YOU’RE ACTUALLY SEEING IS A PIXELATED DIGITALIZED PRINT THAT’S BEEN WOVEN NOT PRINTED. OR WHAT YOU THOUGHT WAS QUITE HEAVY AND THICK, IS LIGHT AS AIR AND WEIGHS NOTHING ON THE BODY. EVERY PIECE HAS SO MUCH THOUGHT AND EFFORT PUT INTO IT BUT THE FINISHED PRODUCT ALWAYS COMES OUT RICH AND EFFORTLESS, KIND OF LIKE A CONFECTIONARY FRENCH DESSERT. I GUESS THAT’S THE MAGIC OF LANVIN.
ABOUT 10 -13 YEARS AGO WHEN I FIRST FELL IN LOVE WITH FASHION, TWO ENGLISH DESIGNERS HAD TAKEN PARIS AND THE FASHION WORLD BY STORM WITH THEIR INNOVATIVE AND THEATRICAL PRESENTATIONS. THE ART OF THE FASHION SHOW HAD RISEN TO NEW HEIGHTS WITH JOHN GALLIANO AT THE HELM OF CHRISTIAN DIOR AND ALEXANDER MCQUEEN AT GIVENCHY. WITH EVERY PRESENTATION, THEY KEPT THE FASHION WORLD ON ITS FEET WANTING MORE AND MORE AND AS A TEENAGER GROWING UP OBSESSING ABOUT FASHION, I COULD ONLY HOPE THAT ONE DAY I WOULD HAVE THE PRIVILEGE TO EXPERIENCE THE ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY OF ATTENDING ONE OF ALEXANDER MCQUEEN’S OR JOHN GALLIANO’S THEATRICAL PRESENTATIONS. TEN YEARS LATER, IT’S UNFORTUNATE THAT FASHION SHOWS THAT WERE AS CREATIVE AS MCQUEEN’S OR AS CEREBRAL AS HUSSEIN CHALAYAN’S NO LONGER EXIST. IT’S A LOST ART THAT MOST DESIGNERS HAVE FORGOTTEN ABOUT. IN THE SHORT PERIOD THAT HE’S BEEN PRESENTING HIS MENSWEAR COLLECTIONS, I FEEL THAT THOM BROWNE UNDOUBTEDLY HAS BROUGHT BACK THAT LOST ART AND THAT HE HAS PUT ON SOME OF THE MOST MEMORABLE MOMENTS THE FASHION WORLD HAS SEEN THIS PAST DECADE. HIS CLEVERLY ORCHESTRATED PRESENTATIONS ARE INJECTED WITH WIT AND HUMOR AND ARE REFRESHING TO THE JADED FASHION CRITIC WHO CLAIMS TO HAVE SEEN IT ALL. HIS MOST RECENT SHOW FOR MONCLER GAMME BLEU WAS NO EXCEPTION AND A TOUR DE FORCE. IT’S SHOWS LIKE HIS THAT REMIND YOU WHY YOU LOVE AND CELEBRATE FASHION.

I LOVE A WOMAN THAT EXUDES THE CONFIDENCE TO WEAR WHATEVER SHE WANTS DESPITE WHATEVER TREND IS IN SEASON AND RUSSIAN DESIGNER, VIKA GAZINSKAYA, IS NO EXCEPTION.
I WAS QUITE FIXATED BY THE FRAYED SIDE DETAIL OF THIS CELINE DENIM JUMPSUIT.
