Lanvin will return to Paris Fashion Week in January (#1682059)

After two years of absence, Lanvin will perform again. The Parisian brand owned by the Chinese giant Lanvin Group (formerly Fosun Fashion Group), has announced that it will return to the official calendar at the next Paris Fashion Week. Lanvin said it will be presented at the end of January, during men's fashion week, without indicating an exact date. In a mixed fashion show, the brand will present the first men's and women's collections from its new creative director, Peter Copping.

“Copping, a modern designer, promises a first collection that reflects what Jeanne Lanvin called maximum elegance. “The show will present the Fall/Winter 2025-26 women’s and men’s ready-to-wear collections in a uniquely revealing moment,” Lanvin said in a brief statement.

Lanvin's previous creative director Bruno Sialelli left after his last show for the brand in March 2023, having been in charge of the Parisian brand's style since January 2019, and after several years of directionlessness following the firing by iconic designer Alber Elbaz in 2015. Lanvin wanted to take its time to rethink its strategy. In almost two years, the brand has reorganized itself, restructuring its range and repositioning itself on the market with a more elegant, sophisticated and intrinsically French style, launching in particular several institutional campaigns.

Now it's Copping's turn to take over and relaunch the oldest French fashion house still in operation. Copping, 57, born in the United Kingdom and with extensive experience, having worked among others at Louis Vuitton and Nina Ricci, has been operational since September. Now it is up to him to translate the transformation that Lanvin has undertaken over the last two years into the new collections.
