SLIDESHOW

As I tried to resume Alber Elbaz’ Lanvin Resort 2012 Collection, I realized it’s pretty hard to do it with just two – three words. I need a phrase. I need an entire column to contain Alber’s Resort inspiration.

Pleats, structured shoulders and skirts, it’s an unforgiving geometry ruling Lanvin’s collection. The tinfoil outfits (which you’ll see right after the jump) enhance the luxury feeling of the designs, that, although not exceedingly colorful or eccentric, enables the wearer to make a noble sartorial statement. (I do have a weakness for pleated and draped dresses, you know that! you can see the entire collection here)
