HOT LIST:LANVIN & DESSINE L’ESPOIR have created a collection of 4 collector’s items! Filed under ( collectors items, Dessine l'espoir, dolls, Lanvin )

In support of the charity Dessine L’espoir, Lanvin will offer clients four limited edition soft figurines to mark the launch of its girls wear collection.

Alber Elbaz asked Dessine L’espoir to create four limited edition soft figurines, each of which are delightfully pretty and dressed in miniature LANVIN Petite outfits. Each of the figurines were hand-embroidered and stitched by a group of women diagnosed with HIV positive, supported by the association, 

Dessine L’espoir in Swaziland. Employed by the association, the project will enable these women toenhance their quality of life and better meet the needs of their families.

The magic of childhood is a recurring theme at Lanvin, and one that is often expressed through its window displays; a nod to Jeanne Lanvin, who loved designing clothes for both children and dolls.

Lanvin and Dessine L’espoir have worked together on various different projects, including the Gala Dinner, organised last March under the glass ceiling of the Grand Palais to raise funds for the charity and its work in supporting persons living with HIV in southern Africa. Lanvin decorated the tables for the occasion with sketches by Alber Elbaz.

These darling soft figurines are an ideal gift or collector's item, 

will be on sale as of November in all LANVIN boutiques 

and retail outlets that carry the Lanvin Petite line.

HOT VIDEO: The LANVIN dance off! Filed under ( Lanvin, video. )

I fell in love with this campaign for soo many reasons!!

its something we can all relate to dont u think? 

i'm soooooo READY to PARTY with my girls right now!!! 

A great touch to what we all fell in love with.

Lanvin never looked so approachable ;)

Primped and adorned in LANVIN dresses, two gorgeous ladies are ready 

for a night on the town.  

Just as we believe they’re about to step out for the evening… 

they stand in position, fixate their eyes on their screen and on cue, start to groove to the music and sway their hips in sync.  Moving to the rhythm of the beat, the girls swing their arms in the air creating a visual show, 

as the audience catches glimpses of the chic evening clutch in one hand 

and a bejeweled cuff in the other, 

with wind in their hair.  Suddenly, the scene switches up a bit and in comes their two male companions.  

At this moment, the party has begun.  

The rhythm of the night and the synchronized steps do not delay the revealing guest surprise…

During Fashion Night Out in New York, 

participants can take up the LANVIN dance challenge.  

The event will be held on September 8^th 

and the winning contestants will showcase their dance grooves at the LANVIN Boutique on Madison Avenue and have a chance to win prizes and gifts.

Audrina Patridge: Never Wear Anything Twice! Filed under ( Audrina Patridge, Chanel, Daily Mirror, Lanvin )

Ever wonder why the cast members of The Hills were always spotted shopping? It turns out that they had to keep re-stocking their wardrobes for filming! Audrina Patridge recently revealed to Britain’s Daily Mirror that the starlets of the former reality show were never allowed to repeat outfits on camera. 

“We were only allowed to wear things once for continuity,” said the stylish star. “They’d take a picture and then I’d never be able to wear that outfit again.” Her favorite one-time wear item? “The best things I wore on the series were a pair of thigh high Lanvin boots,” she said. 

But footwear isn’t her only designer indulgence. The reality starlet also bought a $5,000 Chanel surfboard! “I’m using it as decor in my bedroom until I get really good at surfing,” she explained. “It’s too pretty to risk chipping it.” And while Patridge established herself as a trendsetter on the show, she said her casual-chic aesthetic wasn’t planned. “I wasn’t trying to be a style icon,” she said. “I’d usually just throw on a T-shirt and jeans.” To hear more of Audrina’s interview, check out www.mirror.co.uk. –Mussarat Bata
