Oh la la LANVIN


I can barely contain my excitement for the upcoming H&M designer collaboration with Lanvin--j'adore!  This week more information, photos, and videos have been released for the collection, which comes out in select H&M stores on November 20.  The clothes look DIVINE--pure Lanvin at a reasonable price point!  Nearly every item is a direct replica of a Lanvin runway look, which typically run in the $2000 - $3,000 range.  The line is higher than the usual H&M pricing ($100-$250 for dresses), but according to Lanvin's designer, Alber Elbaz, it is better quality.  He explains "It wasn’t about Lanvin going lower priced; it was about H&M going to the luxury business."  Here are a few of the styles from the lookbook (on the fabulous Irina Lazareanu) against their runway counterparts.
