Balmain S/S 2010 Paris

[afashionado]

hahahaha. A&F and Balmain. two completely different visions. but I get what u mean. A destroyed shirt with bunch of holes for 1300? So reasonable.

I don't think even Victoria Beckham would be willing to buy a 70k croc jacket. And they're only carrying one, and it's been up there for some time, so I'm guessing no one is buying it.

Seriously, just get a Hermes Birkin if you want to spend that amount of money.

Balmain is like the A&F of luxury fashion.

there are about 1-2 dresses that I like, but overall I'm not that impressed with the collection. I don't hate it though, but I don't love it either

Iconic show. I remember gagging at the prices of the pieces in this collection lol.

And a lot of magazines did military editorials because of this collection, even Vogue Paris dedicated an issue to the military style.

That one coat was the look that truly defined that season.

Vogue US also did a military editorial.

What I'd give to have Decarnin doing literally anything. I hope he's well

Don't forget the Demi Moore, Balmain dress photoshop controversy.


I miss Decarnin. I bought some of his Faith Connexion and his Balmain still stands the test of time for how trendy it was.

It seems he's back at Faith Connexion in some capacity. At one point it was confirmed that he did leave by myself as I reached out to the company directly as I noticed a difference in the direction of the collection.

Today I decided to randomly look at their instagram and some of the recent posts peaked my interest as they had a Decarnin vibe. To my surprise, they had credited Christophe as the photographer and it seems he did a capsule for them.

Honestly that is insane. I was obsessed with his FC and actually owned a bit of it, but the minute he left it became very street focused which isn't so me. Interesting that he has that freedom, you can tell that capsule is worlds more thought out. Thank you for the info!!!
