Bubbling Up: Lanvin for H&M

This just might be one of the coolest designer collaborations yet! Lanvin has partnered up with H&M to come up with a line of clothing for both men and women. Lanvin’s artistic director, Albert Elbaz, released a statement saying, “H&M approached us to collaborate, and see if we could translate the dream we created at Lanvin to a wider audience, not just a dress for less. I have said in the past that I would never do a mass-market collection, but what intrigued me was the idea of H&M going luxury rather than Lanvin going public. This has been an exceptional exercise, where two companies at opposite poles can work together because we share the same philosophy of bringing joy and beauty to men and women around the world.”

Lanvin joins Karl Lagerfeld, Stella McCartney, Comme des Garcons and Sonia Rykiel in H&M’s list of designer collaborations. Are you excited? We’ll get a glimpse of the collection and all the details on November 2, and the entire collection will be out by November 23rd in around 200 H&M stores worldwide. We’ll be waiting a few months – we just hope it’s worth the wait. In the meantime, check out the video Albert Elbaz made to announce the collaboration to get you even more excited.
