Balmain Catwalk Fashion Show Paris Womenswear FW2016

Have the it-girls of the moment opening your show, have them one by one completely changing their hair color, have Kanye West (with an attitude) sitting front row, next to his mother in law Kris Jenner and you’ve got yourself a buzz. So that’s exactly what Olivier Rousting set up for his fw2016 Balmain show Thursday afternoon.
His massive collection was made of all fashion ingredients that make an outfit extra feminine. Think pink (accompanied by an icy blue), romantic ruffles, shiny pearls, sheer lace, shimmering gold, amazing embroideries, pleats, beads and what not. There were high collars as well as chunky chokers, corset actuanted waists and knee high suede boots. Shoulders were either pointy or cut-out. Dresses and skirts were extra curvy around the waist. So much amazing craftsmanship passing by so quickly, we simply couldn’t let Kendall’s blonde locks distract us.
