Finally it's over. It's 10:40am and I am in my warm home with my puffy robe and planning to go back to bed when I finish this post.
I've neved done this, but this time I just had to. I'm in love with Lanvin since I was 15, so I couldn't miss it. I got up at 5:30am this morning planning to get to the shop at 6am. The doors open at 8. Having in mind I live 10 mins from the H&M store where they're selling the collection, I gained some more time in sleeping.
It was still dark when I went out and even the stars were shining
I arrived at 6:00 and there were around 50 people before me. I must say that the organization was amazing, as the had already separated the queue clearly, there were these guys giving away warm cappuccinos, brownies, magdalenas and magazines fot he first ones that arrived. No fights, no pushing.
They gave us paper bracelets with different colours depending on where you were standing at the queue.
I made got to know other two girls next to me who also came alone and this way time went pretty faster.
As from 8am people were entering in groups by 20, and each group had 15mins to shop. I was the 4th group in a row, which was pretty good considering the queue after me.
The only bad thing about this was the cold out there, but the thought of my Lanvin goods were warming me up. I was just thinking of the people living in colder countries...oh my...I don't think I would've done it even if it was Marc Jacobs, Prada or Chanel.
After my group went in, there were these bags with a Lanvin scarf inside as a present for each one of the first groups.
You could take only one size per piece and shop for 15 minutes after which you could go and try it on in a separate area and you didn't have the right to go back. So basically if you didn't fit the size you picked, you couldn't change it, so imagine me taking my blouse off in the middle of the shopping area and putting on dresses on top of my jeans (I was wearing body, no nudity ).
This were some of the pieces I took with me in the fitting room and soon we got winners.
Walking back home after all this craziness was a relief, but I was quite scared by the way other women were looking at me with my big bags. At a moment I thought they were gonna kill me and take my bags...really, loads of bad energy, while I was walking, smiling and singing the song from the commercial.
So the winners are the purse...
The necklace...
Of course the gorgeous earrings...
Everything in its own box
The clothes with the hanger and this super handy cover you can use anytime
Aaand after I tried some dresses, I must say that this is the most amazing one of the collection. But you can never say so until you don't try it on. What happens is that, as the fabric is quite hard, you can change the shape of the veil in front and in the back, and you can totally change the whole look of the dress. As this example.
The jacket...oh amazing quality of the fabric and pattern.
Nighty, night...
