Lanvin Pre-Fall 2025 & Men's Fall/Winter 2025-2026: Peter Copping’s Archival Elegance
Peter Copping’s highly anticipated debut as Lanvin’s creative director at Paris Men’s Fashion Week FW25 was nothing short of a masterclass in archival elegance. Unveiling the Pre-Fall 2025 women’s collection alongside the Fall/Winter 2025-2026 men’s collection in a coed show, Copping seamlessly bridged the maison’s storied past with a sophisticated modernity.Inspired by Jeanne Lanvin’s rich archives—sketches, embroidery, and art by Tamara de Lempicka and Tsuguharu Foujita—Copping embraced the glamour of the 1920s and ’30s with a fresh, contemporary lens. His focus on timeless wardrobe essentials elevated with luxurious fabrics like velvet, silk, and satin defined the collection. Women’s voluminous peacoats and satin-trimmed trench coats balanced refinement and drama, while men’s outerwear in fluid, airy silhouettes carried a nod to Alber Elbaz’s iconic designs.
Eveningwear dazzled with heirloom-worthy pieces, from a burgundy silk jumpsuit to frothy cocktail dresses and a striking black velvet gown adorned with silver sequins. Menswear, though new territory for Copping, showcased promising craftsmanship with tailored classics elevated by subtle yet bold embellishments like fringed lapels and metallic details.With its inclusive casting, archival richness, and modern sophistication, Copping’s debut marked a confident new chapter for Lanvin—an ode to its legacy and a bold step into its future.
