Lanvin's Fall 2014 Collection Is Dark, But Beautiful

Ah, Lanvin. Beautiful to look at, hard to pronounce. Whether or not you can say the fashion house's iconic French name correctly, Lanvin has been creating beautiful, dramatic collections basically forever — and their Fall 2014 show kept up that tradition. Filled with every luxurious material you could think of, and a neutral color palette fit for the Parisian girl in all of us, Lanvin debuted a collection bursting with chic, high-end drama.
