Japanese fashion magazine HUgE celebrates the first collection by legendary French house Balmain, and it’s much welcomed move by designer Christophe Decarnin. Model Ash Stymest is photographed by Satoshi Saikusa.
Balmain has recently established itself as one of the popular “it” brand among fashionistas looking that sequenced party cocktail dress and killer boots, even Madonna caved in, in her latest video for “Celebration”. The Balmain Homme is young with a hard edge, ripped skinny jeans, sexy tight fitting leather jackets, the many black tones and of course, the Balmain signature so far, studs. This is a much welcomed collection, ever since Hedi Slimane stopped designing all together; Decarnin and Gareth Pugh came in to fill the gaps in their original own way.
