LANVIN

Lanvin is the French fashion house founded by designer Jeanne-Marie Lanvin. Trained as a milliner and dressmaker in Paris, Lanvin's entrance into the fashion world began with the beautiful clothing she made for her daughter, Marguerite. People began inquiring about where they could purchase this clothing, and Lanvin joined the "Syndicat de la Couture" ("Union of Sewing") in 1909. It wasn't long before she made the switch from clothing children to clothing their mothers.
