Last year Lanvin introduced their first bridal line, Collection Blanche, and the looks for 2009 are just as chic. I admit, I have a complete crush on Alber Elbaz, the brilliant designer at the helm of the famous fashion house, Lanvin. It could be his humble demeanor or adorable glasses, or perhaps it is the fact that he prefers natural wrinkles ("smile lines") over botox. Whatever the case, I am delightfully researching his life and designs and have fallen madly in love with his collections.
If you want to get to know the soft spoken designer a little better, take a look at this NYT video. Be forewarned, there is something undeniably charming about a guy (with
an accent!) who so obviously loves making women happy. In his words, “I don’t have to give you a Tylenol to feel good. I’ll give you, maybe, a red dress, and you’ll feel marvelous.” In this case, let's make it white. xo ~robyn
