She’s far from being a newcomer.
Bouchra Jarrar, 45 years old, had launched her own Haute Couture brand since 2010, after working for 10 years for Jean Paul Gaultier and as collection director at Balenciaga.
After Albert Elbaz very surprising exit last october, Jarrar will be in charge of the ladies’s collection, knowing that dutch designer Lucas Ossendrijver will (continue to) take care of the men’s collection.
Closer to a Gaultier style and sense of tailoring rather than the feminine and fluide Elbaz signature, Jarrar’s Haute Couture pieces have a precise “masculine meets feminine” feature which will be very interesting to follow at Lanvin.
So let’s wish her all good luck and inspiration, I’m really looking forward to seeing her Lanvin collection spring-summer 2017 at Fashion Week in september.
