LANVIN "HAPPY" LES 10 ANS

The HAPPY 10 years collection
A joyful celebration! 10 Years of creation by Alber Elbaz at Lanvin



A celebration of Alber Elbaz’s 10-year anniversary at the helm of Lanvin, the accessories collection for Fall/Winter 2012 expresses the modernity of the house’s emblematic styles and a certain couture-style refinement in the fabrics, colours and finishing details.

Created especially for the anniversary, the capsule collection “Happy” Les 10 Ans features 10 key themes, this includes the house’s iconic Happy bag, a jewel and a shoe design, all representing Alber’s signature styles.
The shoe designs are the ideal shoe wardrobe for the different lifestyles of a Lanvin woman and the jewel is a one of a kind interpretation of 10 Years at Lanvin.
You can mix and match the pieces.


· ‘Le Dessin Alber’ (Alber’s Drawings) brings together a bag embroidered with one of his signature faces, a trainer with eyes on one side and a mouth on the other, and winking feather-eyes on the jewels.





‘Patchwork de Crocodile’ (Crocodile Patchwork) this theme uses the precious skin in shades of taupe and antique pink on the bag, a pair of loafers and the emblematic pompom necklace.







· ‘Imprime Animal’ (Animal Print) this features the bag with a special enameled clasp and a panther print from the 2010 collection, an open-toe heel, and a necklace covered in leopard print fabric.







Gros Grain’ (Ribbon) reflects the key trim from every collection with a reworked version of the bag, a ballet slipper with a gros grain bow and a gros grain-covered necklace reminiscent of Alber’s bowtie






Lettres JL’ (JL Letters - Jeanne Lanvin initials) echoes the industrial feel of the metal elements and medals on the Happy bag’s strap, with a JL-initialed sandal and an oversize pendant




  
Matelassage Art Deco’ (Art Deco Quilted) displays a geometric motif with an acetate pyramid on the bag, an Art Deco style cuff and a padded trainer embroidered with diamanté, all mixing chic with casual.







· A fabric from the last year’s Summer collection is the basis for ‘Lanvin All-Over Brodé’ (Lanvin All-Over Embroidered) with a series of charm medals on the bag’s strap and the necklace, while the pump is covered in the fabric print itself










Coeur Strasse’ (Diamanté Strassed Heart) reflects an element dear to the designer’s heart, embroidered in a giant version on the bag, as a discreet version on the back of the ballet pump, and transformed into a giant heart pendant with diamanté cabochons, as worn in red by the lead singer of Pink Martini during the birthday party at Paris Fashion Week.







Les Bijoux’ (Jewels) presents a Happy bag embroidered in diamanté and sequins with a malachite effect cabochon strap and a brass floral motif, both reflected in the pendant necklace, and a ballet slipper with a diamanté toe.







Finally, ‘Tulle et Perles’ (Tulle and Beads) is a homage to the house’s famous necklace of pearls covered in tulle, translated into a bag covered with tulle strips, a five-row rope of tulle-covered pearls and a ballet slipper with pompoms and diamanté pearls.
