How do I pronounce Jeanne Lanvin?

How do I pronounce Jeanne Lanvin?
To pronounce Jeanne Lanvin, say “zhhuAHWNN LAWW-vuh.” When pronounced properly, the very beginning of Jeanne should sound like the end of the words “collage” (kuh-LAAZH) or “massage” (muh-SAAZH). The end of Jeanne sounds as if you’re exaggerating or adding emphasis to the “AAHN” sound at the end of the name “John.”

Today, Lanvin, which was founded in the late 19th century by designer Jeanne Lanvin, is a globally revered company and is among the oldest French fashion houses still in existence. Shop vintage Lanvin bags, clothing and accessories from some of the world’s top boutiques on 1stDibs.
