Lanvin Fashion Show Fall 2008
Liya Kebede for Lanvin Fall 2008 at Paris Fashion Week
Ooh la la Lanvin! Thank god I didn’t have to go negative for too long. Alber Elbaz gave me beautiful dresses to drool over and plenty to gush about.
Like Givenchy, accessories went bold with chunky necklaces worn one, two or as many as your delicate neck can carry.
Of course, jewelry wasn’t the only thing that was shining. My favorite pieces were the sumptuous gilded cocktail dresses that made me break out a pen to calculate exactly how many eggs I would have to sell in order to get my hands on one. The shiny, happy sophisticated theme carried over to gilded bolero jackets paired with black trousers.
Other pieces were more understated. There were deceptively simple dresses like a one-shoulder blue dress constructed in pleated strips of silk or a similarly constructed dress in oatmeal.
So lavish, and so Lanvin.
