We got word a while back that
Alber Elbaz was working on a Lanvin denim collection with Acne Jeans. At last the collaboration has come to fruition and where there's a new collection, there's a party. Eva Mendes, Liv Tyler, and Rachel Zoe all put on something blue and celebrated alongside Alber Elbaz at Hotel de Crillon in Paris (where the
Crillon Ball was held on The Hills).

With the unfortunate passing of one of fashion's greatest inspirations,
Yves Saint Laurent, I thought it would be fitting to take you through the fashion metamorphosis of Yves himself, his revolutionary brand, and its many successors. What many people don't know is that YSL officially started in the fashion business when Christian Dior died in October of 1957. At the age of 21, Yves was thrust into the spotlight, and more importantly, into the role of head designer of the house of Dior.

We all love those exquisite
Lanvin party frocks, but how about something more wearable for the everyday?
That's just what Lanvin designer Alber Elbaz has in mind. He's
in talks to create his first jeans line together with Acne Jeans.
Brides-to-be who want a little avant-garde for their big day can now look to Lanvin. Despite his hectic schedule, Alber Elbaz
has squeezed in a bridal collection for Lanvin called Collection Blanche. His tongue-in-cheek creations hit the Dover Street Market display windows a few weeks ago.
You voted Nicolas Ghesquière for Balenciaga for best designer of 2007. After much deliberation, Fab's vote goes to
Alber Elbaz for Lanvin. It was a very tough decision, but I think we can all agree that the
Fall collection teased a little something and the
Spring collection was a full-blown fashion orgasm.
