Rectangular leather crossbody bag.

Lanvin blue and black leather crossbody bag. In the 1920s, Lanvin established itself as one of the most important fashion houses of the era, thanks to its innovative and feminine aesthetic. Jeanne Lanvin introduced dresses characterized by vibrant colors, luxurious fabrics, and intricate details. One of her most famous contributions was the “robe de style,” a dress with a full skirt and a cinched waist, contrasting with the straight silhouettes typical of the 1920s.

In 1926, Lanvin expanded its offering by introducing a menswear line, becoming one of the first fashion houses to offer clothing for both women and men. Subsequently, Jeanne Lanvin also launched home decor, leather goods, furs, and lingerie lines, consolidating the brand as a synonym for complete luxury.

Another significant milestone for Lanvin was the creation of the perfume “Arpège” in 1927, dedicated to her daughter Marguerite. This fragrance became one of the brand's most iconic, recognized for its elegant black bottle decorated with the golden emblem of mother and daughter.

After the death of Jeanne Lanvin in 1946, the maison went through various managements and periods of change. However, it has continued to maintain its reputation for elegance and haute couture. In 2001, designer Alber Elbaz was appointed creative director and brought Lanvin back into the international spotlight with his sophisticated and contemporary collections, remaining faithful to Jeanne Lanvin's legacy.
