Peter Copping took the reins at Lanvin amidst its struggle for identity following Alber Elbaz's departure in 2015. Facing the hefty task of reviving what many deemed as a once-prominent brand now on 'life support', Copping’s initial fashion show reflected a calculated yet impactful attempt to reintroduce sophistication to Lanvin. While lacking a complete revitalization, it suggested a promising direction combining French elegance with contemporary influences, showcasing the delicate balance between his past experiences at Balenciaga and the need for fresh innovation at Lanvin.
Mr. Copping's first show provided a convincing statement about what a certain kind of beguilingly twisted sophistication might look like at the beginning of the second quarter of the 21st century.
