Balmain Spring/Summer ’16 Show

An adventurous collection with "off-the-safari-trails" and "into-the-concerte-jungle" looks at Balmain's Spring 2016. The collection composed of utility clothing in whites, earthy and dark tones paired against varying textures of weaved, knitted, crocheted, laced, studded, draped, zipped, and multi-layered clothes of similar color scheme created a sensory experience for the eyes. Oliver Rousteing placed heavy emphasis on cargo pants and safari jackets in the menswear collection and kept the Balmain trademark feminine-sporty style in womenswear. The collection, however, would be incomplete without the accompanying open-toed Gladiator lace-up sandals, coral jewelry, WWII inspired military gears and backpacks.
