Object history
This group of clothing by Lanvin, Dior Homme and Adam Kimmel (T.140 to 146-2016), was purchased in London in around 2010 by the anonymous donor. He often bought his clothes from the Brown's boutique in London, and had an eye for designer labels and garments designed by young, edgy menswear designers such as Lucas Ossendrijver for Lanvin, which offered subtle variations on established current modes.
