Founded in 1889 by Jeanne Lanvin, Lanvin entered a whole new stratasphere with the 2001 arrival of designer Alber Elbaz, who is constantly lauded for his technical skill and innate sense of what women want to wear.

With imagination as his luxurious refuge and fantasy as his creative oasis, there is always something new for Alber Elbaz to explore.For him, beauty and comfort go hand in hand. A womans's beauty shines out when she is comfortable.

"Fashion is important because it creates stories and dreams. And life is nothing without dreams."

–Alber Elbaz
