If I had the need and the funds-it would be:LANVIN
Ideal, a ladylike uniform-in black and white a cameo, gloves, a sturdy pair of shoes, trousers- sans booties.
Alber Elbaz knows women like to look feminine, smart- smart, feminine, smart. This Pre Fall collection is all that. Remember it was MADAME JEANNE LANVIN that gave us this marker-with a little help from her friend Paul Iribe.
& this-
& the thoroughly smart- and modern, as in 21st century modern, Lee Miller wearing LANVIN in 1931.

Yes, love Lanvin but sadly own not a single piece. I would wear that second outfit everywhere!!
ReplyDeleteSo timeless, chic, elegant! Classic ensembles! Oh I do love her deco bath!
ReplyDeleteAll the Best!

Q- I have a couple of vintage things. I love what AE does always, as I said I regret not having the bucks to buy-even on sale! but yes the 2nd look is multipurposing to be sure. I am going to sew some this spring! The top is doable, I think??
ReplyDeleteK- agreed, and the interiors of LANVIN are still some of my favorites.
I do wonder why the cameos did not have someting of the IRIBE design in them-that would have been stunning and very desirable. pgt
I especially like her vintage pieces- such timeless beauty. And that bath...
ReplyDeleteI think this is perfect.
ReplyDeleteSeeing each of these images and thinking about them excites the mind and confers a lasting, durable feeling of well-being.
