Description

      The eldest of a modest family of eleven children, Jeanne Lanvin was born in Paris on January 1, 1867.

From an early age, her independence and strength of character foretold Jeanne’s extraordinary fate.

At the age of thirteen, Jeanne earned her first wages working for a milliner on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré in charge of delivering hats all over Paris by omnibus. 

A hard worker, Jeanne Lanvin began her milliner's apprenticeship a few years later and proved to be quite creative.

The hats created by “Mademoiselle Jeanne” were met with great success, and Jeanne started dreaming of opening her own shop.

The dream would soon become a reality...

The fashion house of LANVIN was founded in 1889.

On August 31, 1897, Jeanne Lanvin gave birth to Marguerite: her only child, her greatest love, and her muse.

Jeanne Lanvin made clothes for Marguerite, which began to attract the attention of a number of wealthy people, who requested copies for their own children.

Soon after, she was making clothes for their mothers, which lead to opening a boutique to market her products.

Through her persistence and many sacrifices, Jeanne managed to get her creations labeled "Lanvin (Mademoiselle Jeanne) Modes"... worn by some of the most famous and fashionable in Paris and throughout Europe.

Jeanne Lanvin died in 1946, but the company is still very much alive today. 

LANVIN is recognized as the third oldest French fashion house still in operation.

The outside of THIS vintage Lanvin bag has a bluish-gray leather exterior with chain-leather handles, a decorative cloth ribbon and flap-top latch closing.

The interior has a dark blue canvas lining with one additional zipper pocket inside.

A classic style that has been crafted with the finest materials.

Ready for you to carry and enjoy for years to come.

A bag perfect for everyday use.

From LANVIN Paris.
