Balmain and Beyoncé together for a Charity Collection

1of11

Who could ever forget the performance of Beyoncé at the last Coachella? She brought the Destiny’s Child back together on stage, danced with Solange and performed with Jay-Z, giving us the biggest and best show of her wonderful career.

Created by Olivier Rousteing for Balmain specifically for the show, even the looks were equally iconic, so as to make a wonderful idea shine in the minds of both.

“When he saw all the dancers who love their outfit and especially Beyoncé loved her, I realized that what we were creating on stage for her, for all the dancers, and it was something really strong,” said Rousteing to Vogue, leading to the decision to make the collaboration available to all Beyoncé fans and fashion fans around the world.

The six-piece collection includes three hooded sweatshirts, drawstring and kangaroo style pockets and three t-shirts in bright pink, yellow and black, all with sorority style graphics.

Proceeds from the Beyoncé x Balmain collection will go to the United Negro College Fund, following a $ 100,000 USD Beyoncé donation to four historically black colleges in the United States. “Let’s not forget where we come from.This really is really important, I come from an orphanage, you know, I think there’s something really exciting about our collaboration,” added Rousteing.

The collection is available starting from today July 13 at the Balmain flagship store in Paris and online at balmain.com and beyonce.com tomorrow, July 14th.
