Alber Elbaz after leaving Lanvin was very low-key, and the "gossip" about his where to go was very rampant. Although it turned out to be false news in the end, he rarely responded positively. As for his private life in the past four years, he only revealed some information to us on Instagram, without too many statements.
Elbaz is like a wild crane, but asks the fashion industry to be disturbed.
Although he rarely appears in front of the public, he often goes to show his friends and friends, and actively supports the design of rookies, which also shows his good relationship in the fashion world.
And a few days ago, a news made the "Little Fatty" Elbaz back to our sights. For four years, he will join forces with the Italian brand TOD'S to launch a "TOD'S FACTORY" ingenuity series.
Falling in love with Lanvin for more than ten years, not only is the regret of the fashion industry that is expanding at the current saturation speed, but also the "honeymoon period" between the fashion industry "star designer and brand" has come to an end. This incident is like opening a Pandora's Box. It seems that since then, the power of the fashion industry has been shuffled more frequently.
In the past few years when Elbaz has faded out of the public eye, the entire fashion industry has already undergone profound changes. As the brand designers change faster and faster, some brands' styles are more and more similar.
Elbaz's elegant feminine style is also becoming more and more desirable when high fashion houses are chasing trends for the new generation.

Nowadays, Elbaz will officially return to the fashion industry through this cooperation series that has been implemented and will be unveiled in the near future. The enthusiastic response has also proved that this design pride has never been abandoned by the fashion industry.
The lovely and wise Elbaz has contributed countless unforgettable Fashion Moments to Lanvin's 14-year history, and has created his own “Elbaz-style†feminine style – pragmatism, easy and flexible, with one piece The dress has changed into a contemporary women's wardrobe that blends with thousands of people.
Elbaz, who worked at the left bank of Guy Laroche and Yves Saint Laurent, knows how to embody femininity in design.
In the choice of clothing materials, he prefers fabrics with bright luster such as satin silk, as he said: "I am pursuing a relaxed, comfortable, and elegant rhythm between walking, so I like soft materials, so unrestrained. The land shows the gentle qualities of women."
Coupled with special crafts such as pleats, sequin embroidery, prints and inlays, these soft fabrics also have a more three-dimensional look.
The Lanvin Fall/Winter 2012 collection is the episode of the “Elbaz-style†tailoring – both the portrayal of the female figure in classicism and the retro-decorationism. For example, those dresses that are "inlaid" with metallic gems, they are arranged to some extent in accordance with the decorative rules of the Baroque period.
With a design starting point for “to bring happiness and beauty to womenâ€, Elbaz is also a designer who has a deep understanding of cocktail dress design, which is one of his iconic designs.
The waist-lined design highlights his in-depth understanding of the structure of the women's wear. The provincial scale is the best proof of the waist; the rear swing of the fishtail gives the cocktail dress a more swaying vision.
At the same time, he also created a tough silhouette with minimalism while creating an elegant retro female image. He often uses lambskin sleeves and shoulder pads to create a shoulder-like structure, and the ruling technique is reflected in the decorative details of the lotus leaf folds and the simple dresses with smooth and smooth lines.
After this iconic design, Elbaz has three more well-known design elements – a “love†signature with a girl's heart, a bow and a self-portrait of graffiti.
In the previous series of cooperation with Converse and Lancome, these elements were used to the fullest.
Although the series of cooperation with TOD'S is not officially exposed yet, we can also guess the style of this series from the design of his previous shoes and bag accessories. I believe this will be a series full of Elbaz style and feminine charm.
