more affordable chic


First Jimmy Choo, now Lanvin has also paired up with affordable chic commercial mogul H&M.

Yesterday they previewed a range of black satin dresses and tuxedo jackets. All pieces which I absolutely love. Most affordable designer clothes are usually made with cheap material or simple designs for the sake of mass production (cough cough Simply Vera line). However, this line looks luxurious and expensive.

Today they showed us bright floral print. The marketing behind this is truly creating a lot of hype. There's a certain mystery behind the collection. It keeps us on our toes wanting to know more. Don't you love how dramatic the advertisements are?

Will you shop for Lanvin at H&M? Oh and I hope you all guessed right with my last post. The designer is....

KENNETH COLE! Known for his social conscious and controversial advertising. Of course my favorite one is addressing Imelda Marcos's shoe fetish in 1986 with the line "Imelda Marco bought 2,700 pairs of shoes. She could've at least had the courtesy to buy a pair of ours"
