    Joyce is one of those blinded sheeps that needs to wake up and get a fresh line up. :]

    one of the more moronic posts I’ve seen in a while. obviously coming from a brainwashed individual

  • Nognog

    there is a reason why High End fashion is slightly not affordable. to weed out the posers.

    You hit the nail on the head, brother. Although this collaboration is something to glance it, in its full grandeur, one must realize–as you noted– that it will do nothing for for America other than bring products that were MASS produced in CHINA, to America. Your ignorance is almost humbling, and anyone who buys your ‘sophisticated’ rhetoric is a fool (Joyce Dade). Jeezee, I wonder how much Lanvin is going to pocket off of this…lol

    Great time to live in America? If you haven’t been noticing, America is a falling civilization. We will see the country crumble beneath us. Also the fact is by making “affordable clothing”, you lose things along the way. Such as quality of the stitching and fabric, and especially in design. Instead of being the nicely hand crafted pieces, with the finest material, it becomes mass produced shit and to reduce costs so it is “affordable” you lose what makes Lanvin a great brand. This will make it a meanless collab since we won’t be able to get the standard Lavin makes for clothing.

    as much as they say H&M is going Luxary it’s just going to be the same stuff, with a Lanvin tag, and higher price tag. This isn’t exciting at all

    We are living in a world where in the United States we have for the first time (exclusing Bill Clinton’s presidency :) we have an African-American president and now this. Billionaires are giving their wealth to charity. A rather complete paradigm shift is and has taken place. The latest news as you post here, Lanvin collaberation with H&M is exciting news and shows us again that we are fortunate to be living in a time when our world at many levels is shifting forward positively. There are those who will think and say otherwise but they would be wrong, in my opinion. My mother wore Lanvin perfume when I was a child and now, I can (afford to) wear Lanvin fashion. The world has changed. Cross cultural changes that are taking place now have in many instances been long over due, their realization is now and so it is an exciting time for us to live in the United States, an exciting and inspiring time for us to know that good will and high fashion prevails on a wider, greater and more beautiful platform. Thank you, Hypebeast for this information and a toast to Lanvin.
