There is something about Lanvin’s Spring/Summer 2010 collection that reminds of Nigeria’s Emmy Collins refined yet fiercely independent point of view.
For Spring/Summer 2010, Lanvin had lots of ongoing juxtapositions that neatly played off refined yet rebellious elements: tailored yet sleeveless jackets, suits matched with seemingly unkept hair, high waist tapered trousers, jackets worn with shorts, balloon sleeve coats and so much more. The collection was dark, mysterious, sexy and definitely saying, “I have a smooth, sexy refined yet anti-conformist swagger!”
