Pre-Fall 2013 Collection: Balmain
Elegance. That is all. But seriously, this collection exudes elegance. Olivier Rousteing, I applaud you. From the minidresses, to the masculine feel of box cut blazers, to the mixing of cultures, Balmain takes the collection to a new level of brilliance in my opinion. One thing that I loved was how the blazers were worn. No longer with just pants, I see. It gives an edgy feel to the look while remaining feminine and elegant. There's so much detail here! The prints are gorgeous, almost reminding me of the aztec in some cases. I also liked the movement of the pants, from skinny to loose. We see a nice mix of the Japanese and Arabic culture in the collection as well. One thing that also stood out to me was the neck area. Higher collars were definitely present in this collection. Overall, I think that this collection moves woman out of the traditional and into something new and fun.
