Sadly, Alber Elbaz, Lanvin’s creative director and a close friend of Natalie for many years, passed away yesterday. He was responsible for dressing Natalie at many events and galas, creating iconic looks for her. He also designed the costumes for her debut feature, A Tale of Love and Darkness. She has remembered him in a heartfelt message on instagram:
