Fall/Winter 2009

France

A refined yet subversive blouse from Lanvin under Alber Elbaz, crafted in delicate black crinkled silk crepe with a semi-sheer finish and asymmetrical shaping. A structured lapel collar and subtly sculpted sleeves are juxtaposed with industrial hook-and-bar front closures, creating a tension between softness and strength that reflects Elbaz’s romantic approach to tailoring. Smooth silk facing at the cuffs provides a final note of polish, balancing the garment’s deconstructed edge with understated elegance.
