for Lanvin
withstructured draping and
luxurious fabrics
And as with any collection
there were a few looks that I thought were unflattering
And others that were downright ugly
Thankfully he mostly stayed away from that 1980s Disco Days theme with over the top shoulders.
Elbaz's collection has a wearable Michael Kors look to it, don't you think?

"People keep trying to divide designers into optimists and pessimists, but me—I'm a realist," declared Alber Elbaz. "I thought with my heart about what women need from fashion—dresses, suits, blouses, coats. Life isn't just parties and lunches." With this empathetic orientation, Lanvin for Fall added another dimension to the revival of Parisian values that are turning out to be the distinguishing feature of the best of this season's collections.

I loved (with a few minor exceptions) this collection.
I also loved it, and as THL says with a few exceptions. I find that a lot with Lanvin. Most is stunning and then are a few odd pieces.
you are so right!
Elbaz is correct, this is a collection for real women, not fashionistas, celebrities or socialites.
I adored what John Galiano did also, especially his evening wear, but Elbaz brought together a collection that was truly wearable.
