[ Runway Style | Inspired by Balmain ]



Severly coveted, just ask Beyonce, Rihanna or Kate Moss, Balmain's collection--by way of Christophe Decarnin--is full of heavily detailed seperates in an uncomplicated color palette of black, white and gray with an exciting pop of bright cobalt blue. Sequins were strong on long sleeved mini dresses--in cobalt blue and black--as well as harem pants while jeans were studded all over. Definitely the easiest item to purchase and wear are the suede five-buckle calf boots that complimented the majority of looks.




Recreating a couple of these key looks is made uncomplicated with the help of French Connection's all over sequined 'Lust' dress in barbara blue. Pair it with Marciano's four-buckle suede 'Daylee' bootie for an expression of urban glamour. Or, slip on Topshop's sequin harem pants, shop your closet for a white surplice blouse and top it off with Arden B's satin collar tuxedo blazer.

style is so personal . . . it is a visual extension of thoughts, feelings and moods, which is why it can change ever so subtly or in the most grandeur fashion and, when it is genuine, can never truly be wrong.
