The career of Jeanne Lanvin (1867–1946) and her eponymous brand began with a millinery apprenticeship in the late 19th century. Today, Lanvin Paris is a globally revered company and is among the oldest French fashion houses still in existence. It is renowned for its exquisite and sought-after vintage evening dresses, shoes, skirts and other garments and accessories and for having dressed such high-profile celebrities as Meryl Streep, Natalie Portman, Kim Kardashian and Sienna Miller.
In 1889, when her apprenticeship came to an end, the young French designer Jeanne Lanvin opened a custom hat shop on the rue Boissy d’Anglas in Paris. Four years later, she moved her business into a much more prominent space on the rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, one of the world’s most famous luxury fashion districts.
The new Maison Lanvin was big enough to display the pieces she would design for her daughter, Marguerite, who was born in 1897. The relationship between Lanvin and her daughter would be at the core of the brand, with a 1907 photograph of Jeanne and Marguerite in matching outfits inspiring the fashion house’s enduring logo.
In 1908, Lanvin launched a line of children’s clothing, one of the first such moves in high-end fashion. When mothers came in to buy the clothes, they often asked for similar designs for themselves.
Lanvin decided to introduce a women’s wear line with pieces that had a youthful femininity. This would grow to encompass everyday clothing, dresses, coats, lingerie and furs, as well as menswear, perfume and household items. Once she became a member of the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture (Parisian Fashion Council) in 1909, her title officially switched from milliner to designer.
Along with her stylish designs, Lanvin identified the importance of brand identity through fabric colors, opening a dye factory in Nanterre, France. There the distinctive “Lanvin blue” was produced, so even if her designs were copied, the colors could never be exactly reproduced.
After Jeanne Lanvin's death, her daughter, Marguerite Marie-Blanche de Polignac, took over and a series of talented artistic directors would propel the brand through the trends of the 20th century, including Jules François Crahay, Dominique Morlotti, Alber Elbaz and, most recently, Bruno Sialelli. In 2018, Lanvin was acquired by the Fosun Fashion Group, which is now focused on celebrating Lanvin’s heritage while pushing it into a new chapter.

Vintage Schiaparelli Speckled Egg Full Parure 1950s
By Schiaparelli
Located in Wilmslow, GB
A remarkable and exceptionally rare, signed Vintage Schiaparelli Speckled Egg Necklace parure dating to the 1950s, capturing the enduring ingenuity and artistic spirit that defined Elsa's House of Schiaparelli. Statement in both scale and presence, the set combines theatrical couture styling with an unexpectedly modern sense of balance and movement. The glasswork throughout is extraordinary. Hand formed speckled glass beads and dramatic twisted drops create a striking contrast against the warm gold-plated framework, the surface patterning recalling the delicate irregularity of naturally speckled eggs. The swag necklace and bracelet construction bring fluidity and elegance, while the asymmetrical arrangement prevents the design from ever feeling overly traditional or composed. There is always a subtle sense of disruption in Schiaparelli’s work, and this set carries that beautifully. Particularly collectible is the inclusion of two distinct pairs of signed ear clips. One pair takes on a more sculptural ear climber silhouette, highly unusual for the period and remarkably forward looking in design. The second pair references historic bomb shaped drop earrings, reinterpreted through Schiaparelli’s avant garde lens with exaggerated scale, unusual colouring and playful proportion. Though created during the 1950s, the creative daring and surrealist instinct established during Schiaparelli’s celebrated pre war years continues to run clearly through the design. The combination of sculptural form, artistic glasswork and unconventional balance gives the set a distinctly expressive quality that still feels strikingly modern today. Why this piece: A rare opportunity to acquire a complete signed Schiaparelli parure...
