Lanvin X Style.com



(first picture my own, all other images from style.com)
My new favorite t-shirt is in my closet. My precious Alber Elnaz designed t-shirt is just as amazing as it looked in the pictures (+ 100% organic cotton). And knowing only 400 were printed it makes it even more unique. This Lanvin t-shirt is part of a collection style.com launched for their 10th anniversary marked with the latin number "X". Ten designers were asked to create one t-shirt each all having in common an "X". Calvin Klein is too minimal for me, Rodarte too complicated, Alexander Wang's reminds me of pasties and Lady Gaga, Proenza Schouler is too DIY, Kane's was just "nice", Prada has two little guys on the bottom I've never seen before, so I had to choose from Rick Owens' very strong design, Balmain's which reminds me of  Ba-Rock fountain pen writting, Givenchy's spinal print reminiscent of The Amazing Fall 2010 Couture Show and a classic Alber Elbaz for Lanvin sketch. Of course the little monster in the red bodysuit won! I bought mine from colette, but you can also buy yours from
