For the first time designer Alber Elbaz let comfort rule in the eye of his Lanvin Spring 2012 collection. “So for me it was more important how [the clothes] would feel than how it would photograph,” he said during a preview.

The stretch scuba fabric many have grown to adore was the prime component in tight skirts, but don’t let the fabric fool you – the track suits were far from weekend casual. Sky high slits and structured sleeves allowed this collection to maintain a high-fashion quality.

Tracksuits that were embellished with dynamic jewels dominated the runway and were paired with gold chokers and cross necklaces. Dresses also made the cut – with bold color blocks that would flatter most body types.

The models, including Victoria's Secret Angel Miranda Kerr, had sleek and shiny urban-inspired hair with sexy smoky eyes.
