Here is the lookbook for Spring/Summer 2014 by Balmain. Next to cloths of great depth, such as knitwear and outerwear (simply superb), there are other very unusual. In fact, it’s hard to find items such as salopette and denim coveralls, clearly inspired by the world of work and industrial landscape, in the collections signed by Maison like this, We’re not talking about a niche brand with avant-garde ambitions, so the effort is appreciate, although the result is questionable. To note the limited use of purely slim cuts of jeans and pants, which adopt the most comfortable forms to become very loose for today’s standards. Finally, attention to jodhpurs, riding breeches reminiscent of the masterpieces of the women collection F/W 2007 signed by Decarnin and, for the more artistic, the painting of a prefuturist Boccioni, in 1904. Here other images.
