If you hadn’t already guessed, Alber Elbaz, creative director of French fashion house Lanvin is one of my favourites. Not only for his exquisite designs, attention to detail and ability to create trends but for his charming character which is reflected in each and every collection.
Fairytales, magic and dreams are his inspirations, another reason to love the talented Mr Elbaz – A Lanvin gown makes you feel like a princess.
‘Fashion is not about a second skin. It’s not the perfect white t-shirt or camel jacket. What women need is a dream.’
With this in mind it seems most appropriate that Elbaz has taken hold of the creative reigns at London’s luxury hotel Claridges to create a fashionably festive Christmas Tree.
On hearing this exciting news my mind raced with visions of ribbons, bows, and a seasonal colour palette of reds, greens and gold. After all, Elbaz is a traditionalist at heart and will no doubt design a dreamy display, fit for a fairytale Christmas.
The Alber Elbaz for Claridges Christmas Tree can be seen from the 22nd November 2011.
