I love Lanvin #PFW

02.03.13

How beautiful the Lanvin Fall 2013 show was on Thursday! The brand continues to be more flirty and fun than ever under Alber Elbaz‘s direction and for Autumn it seems he envisaged girls throwing open a dressing up box. ‘I felt this change of direction, a kind of crazy mood in Paris that I didn’t see before’ the designer told WWD. Alluding perhaps to the fan-fare of fashion week in all it’s parading maximalist glory, the bold word necklaces stamped with ‘Cool’, ‘Happy’ and interestingly ‘Help’, were layered amongst swathes of pearls and chains- a look you can easily see being emulated by many for the pleasure of street style photographers.

The buzzing bees were the final touch that caught my eye pinned as brooches on top of butterfly or dragonfly printed silk dresses- its reminds me of playing dress up with friends as a little girl, our house in the English countryside on a warm spring day, the sound of laughter – sunlight streaming through an attic window and the hum of buzzing bees in a nearby meadow..#fashiondaydreams
