While voluminous silhouettes rule the season, Balmain strikes a delicate balance between tailored and relaxed. With essential elements like stitching and zipper details, Olivier Rousteing draws attention to the usage of fabric and tailoring. Moreover, footwear is characterized by exaggerated shapes and finishes.
