Balmain Beauty

What makes a brand so coveted? What sets it apart from the rest?

Balmain was founded in 1945 by Pierre Balmain and immediately defined Parisian style and elegance. Presently, Olivier Rousteing is head designer of Balmain and has taken it to a whole new level.

I can only imagine wearing Balmain. But I imagine feeling an immediate sense of confidence, pride and sophistication.The brand is able to present women in a way that changes their identity. Women look edgier, more confident, more pronounced and eye catching. The intricate detail, fabric and texture work adds femininity. While the structured shoulders on blazers, dresses and tops scream authority and power. 

Oh to wear Balmain... We can only dream. Well Christine Centenera has shown all Adelaideans that anything is possible. From her humble beginnings in little old Adelaide to senior Vogue fashion editor, consultant to Kanye West, partner of renowned Australian designer Josh Goot and one of Australia's most globally-visible fashion figures. She can wear that Balmain blazer with pride because she has made it. We'll get there one day...
