Balmain

Founded in 1945, Pierre Balmain's eponymous house has evolved into a singular union of Parisian couture heritage and 21st-century daring. Always remaining true to its core values of inclusion, empowerment and excellence, today's Balmain is intent on forging fashion's future in a uniquely authentic manner. Compelling, often surprising and always bold, Balmain's offerings rely on an instantly recognizable silhouette, assertive spirit and the powerfully transformative possibilities that only beautiful design and skilled construction can achieve. Constantly seeking exciting, novel and entertaining ways to converse and communicate, Balmain will never shy away from pushing each and every envelope. Part of Mayhoola, led by the vision of our Creative Director Olivier Rousteing, the house's impressive rapid growth and critical success is entirely due to the passionate and talented Balmain family of craftspeople, experts and team members who make each collection possible.
