Alber Elbaz: Lanvin's Designer
Alber Elbaz uttered the words we all waited to hear this week in a press release that surfaced yesterday: “H&M approached us to collaborate, and see if we could translate the dream we created at Lanvin to a wider audience, not just a dress for less. I have said in the past that I would never do a mass-market collection, but what intrigued me was the idea of H&M going luxury rather than Lanvin going public.”
AEFIJIWWF. AWEIFJOWEIF!!!! The video we posted earlier had the whole fashion media world confused about who the man behind the silhouette was but the second we heard his voice we knew it was Alber!
“It is very much a Lanvin collection, using their cut and tailoring, with lots of focus on form and details for both women and men”, said H&M creative director, Margareta van den Bosch.
Sounds effing dope. We will get a peek at the collection on November 2nd. Ah!
