Balmain is bringing back the label’s accessories offerings, which will include men’s and women’s bags, shoes and more. Creative director Olivier Rousteing led the team that designed the collection whose offerings were informed by the label’s archives as well as the the Balmain atelier and Rousteing’s own distinct design aesthetic.
As directed by Pascal Dangin, the label has created a video introducing the golden icons associated with each of the accessory collection’s three families: the golden coin medallion of the Renaissance line, the golden thread that works its way through the Balmain Le 44 designs, and the Domaine collection’s gold-topped hotel key charm, with its long leather tassels.
The collection will receive its first reveal during the label’s pre-fall presentation on January 21st and will hit Balmain boutiques globally in June 2017.
