Lanvin Alber Elbaz Collection Blanche Ivory Guipure Lace Coat 2013

The bridal dress has a storied history of closing out a haute couture runway show. As one of the oldest couture houses in existence, the house of Lanvin launched a modern yet traditional bridal line "Collection Blanche" that captured the signature silhouettes and features of the house while tweaking them for the contemporary woman. Done in an intricate cotton guipure floral lace, this coat drapes elegantly across the shoulders and daintily moves into fitted long sleeves. The coat has a straight silhouette that can be fitted with the ivory grosgrain ribbon sash that offers extra dimension to the overall look. Finishing at knee level, this coat can be worn in a variety of ways as a layering piece or as a dress itself that would be perfect of a wedding, garden party, or simply a Sunday brunch. It can be seen in the featured images as a part of the 2013 collection photoshoot.
