Jeanne Lanvin began a fruitful association with the theatre and the cinema in the 1920s. Among those who have worn her creations are Blanche Montel, the Dolly Sisters, Cécile Sorel, Marie Ventura, Yvonne Printemps and Arletty. In 1938, filmmaker Sacha Guitry awarded the Legion of Honour to the "Ambassador of elegance". In 2012, Meryl Streep and Jean Dujardin, the Oscar winners for Best Actress and Best Actor in a leading role, were wearing Lanvin - custom made in the Lanvin Paris atelier. |
