The Big Picture
Lanvin circa Spring 2008

I stopped by Cathy Horyn’s blog this morning and found musings on her attendance at Karl Lagerfeld’s couture party yesterday. (How wonderful it must be to be her) I then scrolled down a bit to find an super beautiful preview of Lanvin’s Spring 2008 collection. Yes, soon we’ll be looking at Fall 2008/09. It’s downright scary. But how can you not look forward to January 2009. (Political reference for those “in the know”). I digress.
The short of it is, Alber Elbaz’s spring preview photos on Horyn’s blog are nothing short of beautiful. The piece in particular that has me tripping over myself is the Lanvin white shirtdress described on her blog as a “double-layered silk inspired by a man’s dress shirt, with a triple-layer navy chiffon minicoat.”
The one thing that really got my attention is how Horyn ends her blog post by stating:
His other accomplishment is to bring clear design integrity to shapes that appear simple, in fabrics like polyester (yes!), washed silk and organdy, so that the clothes are hard to copy.
wha.. wha.. wha what??!?! Not that designer’s clothes are relatively easy to copy, they add intentional intricacies to keep the retail masses guessing, but if he’s taking an additional step, the folks at Forever 21 may be shaking in their flats.
