Lancôme has announced a highly anticipated collaboration with fashion designer Alber Elbaz, which will see the pair release a colour cosmetics collection later this year.
Alber Elbaz is, without a doubt, one of the world’s most influential fashion designers,” said Lancôme president Youcef S. Nabi in a statement. But beyond that, he is also the most talented. His sense of luxury, his vision of femininity and that hint of audacity resonate perfectly with the new values of the Maison Lancôme. We are extremely proud and happy that, with us, he is set to channel his universe into the world of make-up for the very first time.
Alber Elbaz, the artistic director of Lanvin, was recently honoured with the 50th anniversary Geoffrey Beene Fashion Impact Award at a dinner in New York City.
The deeply audacious” Lancôme x Alber Elbaz collection will be unveiled worldwide on June 15, 2013.
