Balmain goes Versaille

balmain1

After last season’s distressed military look, Decarnin choose to go Baroque chic for his new collection and brings back some Louis XIV decadence to Paris. He stays true to the big-shoulders silhouette and plays with lots of gold and brocade. I LIKE a lot!!

Le vrai military

Leave it to Carine & Co to push the limits of aesthetics…Among the recent overflow of too pretty, military inspired editorials, this is the first one I really like, cause it dares to be different and truely fierce.

Blinded by Balmain…

German top model and natural beauty Toni Garn photographed by Knoepfel and Indlekofer for the September issue of German Vogue.

On this shot she is wearing this season’s IT piece and Les Coupines’ FAVOURITE: the sequined, striped sweater with sharp shoulders. Decarnain manages to combine three key trends in one single piece without overdoing it. Unfortunately, this Balmain piece is well out of our reach, but we love the alternative by French brand Sandro.
