BALMAIN SS15

OLIVIER ROUSTIENG

Balmain has won me over again. Not surprisingly as who is the creative director. I was apprehensive over this collection due to last years over use of the dogtooth print and standard pastel colour, which to me didn't reflect Balmain. 

However, I was relieved and amazed over this year's block and primary colours, salute to Balmain! 
I particularly admired the comeback of the androgynous look, in particular the crisp white batwing 2 piece suit. The square structure reflected the masculinity of the suit whereas the deep v and flared pant highlighted the feminine silhouette. 

I also find that this collection would be appealing to women of most figures due to its high waisted pencil skirts, vertical stripes and overall very fitted ensembles. 

I'll take one of each in every style, please and thank you :)
