FW2010: Balmain

Balmain unveiled the FW2010 menswear collection last January at Paris Fashion Week. There is a lot of discussion on the creativity and construction of these pieces, and of course the sky high prices. Balmain's women collection is always favored and ooh'd and ahh'd by all fashionistas because women feel that not only are the pieces sexy, but they really are what women want. I think the menswear collection is just that. Most guys don't like to dress up, and this collection is all about effortless style. Sure maybe the pieces are not daring enough, but they really are amazing. The boots and that quilted jacket are driving me nuts! Balmain is the brand for the cool guy, who doesn't care too much for what he's wearing (or at least doesn't show it.)
