Lanvin's S/S 11 collection had quite a wintery feel, a focus on coats with over sized and reconstructed lapels and collars, each one having plenty of zips and detachable bits for the transition from spring to summer. With beautiful body tight knitwear and chunky neck jewellery, the collection was predominately black though select colours of aqua blues, greens and yellows used added an impact which immersed you instantly. Alber Elbaz and Lucas Ossendrijver looked at layering and texture thoughout the collection "when you have the texture in front of you, you want to touch it and thats when it becomes emotional. And the texture in the patch-worked jackets did indeed make the clothing beautifully tactile.
Love the greens from the snake skin shoes picked out shown through in the constructed jackets.

Alexis Mabille's S/S 11 Collection was inspired by the story about 'a man lost in the quiet brightness of summertime in a Hamiltonian world, a mirage. A cloud of lightness and volumetric movement, the body is free and shaded from the Sahara wind. You definitely got that image by looking at the models styling which was inspired by the painting from David Hamilton. The clothes seemed to have a lot of sporty jersey elements mixed with more tailored pieces. On the whole it had a quiet and comfortable wearability with a poetry of floating light fabrics.
