The jewellery from Lanvin’s F/W collection is some of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. I love the combination of Art Deco geometry and delicate florals. There is a quality about it that almost appears futuristic, or at least a 1920s Metropolis version of the future. Of course, being Lanvin, they are also incredibly expensive, so all season I’ve been eyeing Lanvin-esque pieces from more affordable designers, as well as fast fashion options. 

Interestingly, so much of Lanvin’s collection reminds me of Miriam Haskell, who became known for her flora and fauna motif jewellery back in the 1950s. I wonder if she may have been a source of inspiration for Alber Elbaz. Just lovely.
