이진민 Jin-min Lee
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to define the aesthetic characteristics of Jeanne Lanvin who founded the fashion brand “Lanvin" and expressed an artistic value and a unique sense of fashion design during the period of 1920-30s. Lanvin started her special and original design by opening millinery at 1889. She designed children`s collection for upper-class customers` children and showed a vigorous activities during the early 20th century by opening haute couture for women`s wear. In this study, Lanvin`s design work was examined by dividing her work into early, middle and last periods. As a result, the identity of Lanvin`s design can be defined as (1) splendid surface decoration based on the use of beading and embroidery, (2) simple and classical silhouette, (3) a variety of design inspiration based on exotic taste of art and culture, and (4) the use of creative colors represented by `Lanvin blue`. Based on these examinations, it can be suggested that in Lanvin`s design work delicate and splendid surface decoration added to modern and simple silhouette showed romantic simplicity, and that design inspired by ethronographic sense and medieval catholic expressed exotic beauty. Also, Lanvin`s new & experimental decoration trend to use textile and fabric itself was discussed, which was found in the last period of Lanvin`s design.
