Balmain F/W 07.08 Paris

[xmodel citizen]

It's not the shape I dislike on the pants, it's the glittery crotch guard (chastity belt?) on Daria's outfit and the shiny material on Stam's.

And I also feel that Anja's outfit (the first in #30) is a bit of a cheap ripoff of Balenciaga S/S 06. Other than that, I love most of the dresses.

i'll go ahead and say i love the pants... especially the pair on daria. they look so fresh now, especially with the cool tank on anja. it kinda reminds me of the vibe of dolce & gabbana/chloe circa 2001-2002 which is a look i have been missing lately.

i know that it isn't a proper fashionista's question, but... er... are there any backstage pics?

not yet, but i will post some when they're up...
the little bottines look great...i can't wait to see detail shots on those...

^^I think those might belong in the SC forum for the most part

A coherent, nice collection, but only a few notable pieces. Loving the 20's/70's flair in monotonous tones.

thanks. and yeah, as faith suggests , if you happen to find some backstage pic and are so kind to post them, you may post them in the sc threads...

^ i don't get why...to me, it's more an alternate/"real world" view of the clothes than anything about the models. who cares about them??

 

[Faith Akiyama]

^ Because in the past it has unintentionally spurred on model discussions off-topic for this forum, if I recall correctly!

not for me cos i actually don't care at all about the clothes... i care only about daria! and eventually on the clothes on her!
anyway, i don't want to disturb more the conversation on the collection.

[happyguy]

wow
never paid any attention to Balmain. I love this collection.something fresh about it. maybe it's the colours and those trousers which i really love. and are those sweat marks under Christophe's arms? or are they patches which happen to be part of the design of the shirt?

 

[Whitelinen]

^I was wondering the same exact thing

 

[Mettchen]

..and the last two..

 

[brian]

WOW...thanks mettchen!
