After the pre-fall collection I think we were all looking forward to seeing the F/W Lanvin collection. Sadly, there was really nothing to be looking forward to. The hair was an absolute disaster. It looks like my brother’s hair when he wakes up. As much as I want to be, I am not excited by this collection. The shoes are really great and I loved the interruptions of red and purple on such a somber runway, but overall this is nothing compared to what Elbaz is capable of. There were a few pieces that stood out to me like a fur dress that I would buy in a jiffy; the brooches were also quite inventive and went well with the lovely shoes. Really though, none of the clothes were flattering; even on the models it made them look short and masculine. Just imagine what this would look like on normal people. Last season I was such a fan of the powerful statement clothes. Very fashion forward. New shapes, fabrics, geometrics and all. This seems like a step back, a step to somewhat prettiness? I think this is something he was trying to step away from last season. As much as I try, I see absolutely nothing alluring about badly constructed dresses and gross wigs. Over and out.
