I think this was the reason that H&M went above and beyond with this collaboration. This has been their most prestigious designer to date and this has set the table for them to court other prestigious houses, saying "well, look how we handled Lanvin".
They really had no choice but to be very meticulous about the standard of quality to warrant an H&M x Lanvin tag. Imagine if they slipped up? There would've been a massacre! And any future collaborations would've been slowed down significantly.
which is why Alber stressed from the very beginning that it wasn't 'Lanvin going high street' but 'H&M going luxury'. which appealed to him and the Lanvin owners.
some people just don't understand...
