SCAD Fash Celebrates Jeanne Lanvin’s Haute Couture Heritage


I met with him and his co-curator, Gaël Mamine of Fondation Azzedine Alaïa, in collaboration with the Lanvin Archives to discuss the SCAD FASH Museum of Fashion + Film’s latest exhibition, which is the first time that Jeanne Lanvin (1867-1946) has ever been the sole focus of a museum show in the United States. Illustrations just show the three-dimensionality, the love and the passion that was put on those illustrations and those would have been given to clients or were for the press while the others were recording in books what they had created for the season.” As an example, included in the show is both a photograph and an actual gown in black, with a peacock motif down center front, and it is the perfect example of Lanvin at the height of the roaring twenties.
