Olivier Rousteing shared what exactly inspired the opening of the Balmain Los Angeles Flagship. Olivier says,
“Los Angeles has always been this incredible source of dreams and inspirations. Pop culture actually made me fall in love with the city even before I had set foot inside it! Later, when Los Angeles became more than just the setting of movies and songs. It ended up inspiring me even more.
My California friends introduced me to the singular lifestyle. Relaxed glamour and exhilarating openness, diversity and freedom that one finds there; and, of course, in my collections. So, in many ways coming to LA is almost as much as a homecoming as the opening of a new flagship.”

Kanye West For Balmain
The Balmain Fall – Winter 2016 Ad Campaign though simplistic in a sense still plays on drama. In the shot West seems to be tipping over as Smalls reaches out with all her strength to try to prevent his fast approaching fate.
The Details
Olivier Rousteing describes the Fall – Winter campaign as “Music Meets Fashion.” Very fitting since an iconic musician and heavily sought after model were both casted. Moreover, West over the years has turned his attention to couture. Thus, bringing the fusion full circle. Kanye has collaborated with Balmain on Yeezy fashions and it looks like stylish marriage continues on with the addition of the campaign.
Joan Smalls For Balmain
The fabulous Pascal Dangin who blessed the Balmain Fall – Winter 2016 Ad Campaign with his magical fingers took to social to announce the ad’s release. He said,
“First image of our new Balmain campaign FW2016 #BalmainArmy with Kanye West [and] Joan Smalls. Photographed by Steven Klein.”
Congrats to Balmain on another gorgeous campaign. It immediately gave us flashbacks to the stunning Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford and Claudia Schiffer campaign. We’re excited to see additional images!
