of course. Think how is amazing take a bus with ...osp.....only limousine for this collection. Skirt with "volants" are not wearable in a normal life. I think that THE BEST COLLECTION is a collection wearable. Not only in special occasion. Well. I love Olivier. But this collection is not his best.
floriana santanni I completely agree with your analysis on this collection. This isn't exactly Olivier's best, but in my opinion, this is the best I've seen from Paris so far, just ahead of Carven and Dries Van Noten.
floriana santanni well the first half of Saint Laurent was sexy and wearable as you described it, really good actually, but the second half? It looked a bit costumey if you ask me.
Balmain Running Up That Hill - Kate Bush Waiting Game - Banks All The Things She Said - t.A.T.u. Spente Le Stelle - Emma Shapplin What Else Is There? - Röyksopp Hijo De La Luna - Mecano Bachelorette - Bjork Smells Like Teen Spirit - Tori Amos Shake It Out - Florence + The Machine
True. He should've walked out with Natalia, Karolina, and Natasha. It's not that I don't like Alessandra (she's gorge) but it would've been more according to theme.
I agree the creativity is genius and the first Balmain runway show I enjoyed mainly because there's no instamodels flooding the runway with their tacky walks and mediocre looks.
The DETAILS! Olivier and his team are forever elevating the house they are representing. The soundtrack - my favorites. The show - - Serving ICONIC Chanel/Versace REALNESS. One of thee best Olivier for Balmain runway shows ever.
This show was so beautiful! I did not want it to end 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️ . Thank you Olivier and Balmain team . Every Models who walked and everyone who worked on this show . 🙏🏽 🙏🏽.
I'm blown away! I never expected this collection to be so fantastic! The combination of sequins and other materials along with the cutting to suit many women of different body shapes. Really inspiring me to include a few pow wow outfits into my capsule wardrobe. I wathced this collection 5 times already. Loving it.
And what else is impressive is that this is the one collection where I saw the models genuinely happy and laughing at the end of the show. They look like they also like the collection and respect the designer. Well done on such camaraderie!
LOVE THE CASTING,THE HAIR,THE MAKE UP AND EVEY PIECE OF CLOTHING.....I GUESS I LOVE IT ALL LOL....BIG MENTION TO NATALIA OPENING THE SHOW.....JUST PERFECTION
لم أشاهد عرضاً لBalmain إلا و حللت القصات و البترون و الخامات المستخدمة و الألوان و العمل اليدوي الذي قدمه Olivier كذلك الأحذية و الحقائب و الاكسسوارات ... و حتى الموسيقى التي يستخدمها في العرض و الصورة الكاملة لمجمل العرض ،ما أجده دائما أن Olivier مدرسة كاملة في الأزياء يقدم الالهام المميز و التقنية المتقنة بالإضافة لتقديمه فناً راقياً ..أحسنت
Now THIS is how you design for millennials! This is FASHION. We don't want cheap, junior Forever 21...we want dynamic, bold and interesting pieces that one can feel good about investing in. This collection was youthful but not immature. I don't know if he just feels empowered by the reputation of his label and how he's been received historically, but Olivier takes some damn chances and they usually pay off. He'c created a signature that's unmistakable but he evolves it through the seasons. He doesn't feel chained to the same silhouettes, techniques or treatments, but when you see his show, without fail, every season, you can say Balmain. Am I someone who would wear any of these clothes? Probably not. Are these pieces what I would call "timeless"? No, they're very NOW. But this collection is a triumph, nonetheless.
Johnny Gutierrez I couldn't agree more...I kept seeing the word edit in flashing neon lights the whole show through. He has great ideas, but at one point I was seeing, banding, piping, enlarged fishnet, ruffles and cutouts all in one dress. It read a bit inexperienced (though well crafted). It just wasn't up to the usual Balmain standard that Olivier has set for himself.
Bravo Olivier! I was genuinely surprised by the qualtity of this collection, it's been a while!! I only realised that were not one Insta girl during the final...fabulous
The pieces are architectural in nature and stunning too! And yes, no Hadid or Jenner girls I’m happy to say. But OMg that song at the beginning!!!!! Gorgeous!!!
Jesús well I dont see Natasha wear The multi million dollar bra or opening the show when she's doin the VS show.. while Karolina open the show when she was only 16 and a year later she wore the fantasy bra that cost 10.5M and 2006 6.5M. pretty much Gisele and Karolina rules.
Tsai Tsai lol! Well you can tell that to the designers that keep booking Natasha in bluechip ads, the EIC that have booked Natasha in over 55 vogue covers and herself who turned down Victoria Secret. And she’s closing the show, not just a filler.
Jesús well I can't argue w that but wether youre coco for rocha, crazy karlie or nuts about Natasha, there was only one model who deserved model of the year is karolina kurkova back in 2012 and 2002.. two times already bruhhh. And I didnt c Natasha get any award yet..
Very nice collection! Creative but not over the top. The pieces flow on the body and have nice movement and fluidity. These models were excellent, so many different looks. Love it!
Eu fiz esse comentário quando só tinha visto 2 looks do desfile, mais daí começou vir os mesmos vestidos bordados e com franjas que é a cara do Oliver, ou seja, MAIS DO MESMO.
Nairan Marracho vai me dizer que os vestidos que lembram a estrutura da Torre Eiffel, as blusas de ombro vazado, as franjas, o tecido que parece rede vc ainda não tinha visto na balmain? Quando começou o desfile eu fiquei pasmo pq aquilo não podia ser balmain, mais fiquei pasmo de maneira Boa. Aliás a coleção ta muito Boa
Eu acredito que seja uma “identidade” balmain, assim como as outras grifes tem suas particularidades. Se víssemos franjas e babados em outros desfiles já falaríamos “imitou a balmain”. Eu acho super bacana as criações dele, sempre autênticas.
She was never the best walker, but she oozes this soft and doll face beauty and has been a staple face of Calvin Klein. She is the most profitable Russian model if I'm right, and dedicates her life to good causes. Don't be mean Gigi, you not a veteran yet.
Ah so fresh and so fierce, the cutting, shilouette, fabrics. Great cast. Good job Olivier. But i dont like those transparents plastic things. But everything is amazing
They let a real model open the show ✨
The show is beautiful I’m in love 😍 !
Natalia, Natasha, Anna, Sasha, Magdalena, Kasia
that is one hell of a line up there! just beautiful!
Just add Lily and Snejana and it's perfect!
This is the best collection from the Paris Fashion Week so far. Everything on this collection is PERFECT 😃😃😃😃😍😍
of course. Think how is amazing take a bus with ...osp.....only limousine for this collection. Skirt with "volants" are not wearable in a normal life. I think that THE BEST COLLECTION is a collection wearable. Not only in special occasion. Well. I love Olivier. But this collection is not his best.
floriana santanni I completely agree with your analysis on this collection. This isn't exactly Olivier's best, but in my opinion, this is the best I've seen from Paris so far, just ahead of Carven and Dries Van Noten.
Well, Saint Laurent by Vaccarello for me is the best. Sexy, but wearable. Only in the final...well, need a van for get around :)
floriana santanni well the first half of Saint Laurent was sexy and wearable as you described it, really good actually, but the second half? It looked a bit costumey if you ask me.
in fact...need a van, in a car is impossible :)

Oh My My... Natalia Vodianova and Karolina Kurkova !!! It feels like shining armour with this collection.
True. He should've walked out with Natalia, Karolina, and Natasha. It's not that I don't like Alessandra (she's gorge) but it would've been more according to theme.
I loved it. Olivier is a genius. And no Jenner or Hadid on the runway :)
Levanah G Agree this show was made by true good models and no instagirls

This was the best balmain show EVER!!! I will not trust anyone who says otherwise (except the balmain shows from the 50's/Oscar's balmain)
the decarnin shows say otherwise
omg youre the best and decardin shows were sooo rock and roll totally different aesthetic other reader 😊

DrizzyRih don't forget alessandra.... Incredible cast
DrizzyRih and alessandra? :(
DrizzyRih. Jourdan Dunn didn't walk in this show
I'm blown away! I never expected this collection to be so fantastic! The combination of sequins and other materials along with the cutting to suit many women of different body shapes. Really inspiring me to include a few pow wow outfits into my capsule wardrobe. I wathced this collection 5 times already. Loving it.
i couldn't believe when "all the things she said - T.A.T.U" was played. so happy
And what else is impressive is that this is the one collection where I saw the models genuinely happy and laughing at the end of the show. They look like they also like the collection and respect the designer. Well done on such camaraderie!
True talent! The show was extravagant, innovative and kinetic art! Oliver is a prodigy to be appreciated by the masses.
Great show without Gigi , Bella , Kendall ;) but with great models . :)
This collection was amazing!!! Oliver is an amazing creative director for Balmain ❤️
Balmain has always the best shows, the best collections, the best models, Olivier is a genius, as always. #heaintplayinaround MY RESPECTS 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼👑👑👑

Wow I actually for once love everything a collection of this. And the model line-up is so extravagant. Brilliant
I love the casts.
Wow, the best casting of proper models.

Your comment was unnecessarily long and useless.
And your comment was short and useless.
G H Yes this is fashion but just for millionare people and what's wrong with Forever 21 anyway
Always Perfect thanks Olivier! And no hadid and jenner !
Balmain low-key can be a bit tacky. So many ideas in one outfit. The craftsmanship is beautiful, just needs an editing eye before it hits the runway.
Johnny Gutierrez I couldn't agree more...I kept seeing the word edit in flashing neon lights the whole show through. He has great ideas, but at one point I was seeing, banding, piping, enlarged fishnet, ruffles and cutouts all in one dress. It read a bit inexperienced (though well crafted). It just wasn't up to the usual Balmain standard that Olivier has set for himself.
Almost cried when I saw so many real super models walking the runway. Thanks for no Jenner or Hadid
Cringe
Same here.
Beautiful models, real. Fantastisk job of Oliver as always.
Natalia Vodianova, Natasha Poly, Anna Selezneva, Kasia Struss, Sasha Luss, Andrea Diaconu, Magda, Kate Grigorieva 😍😍😍
Simone Capone Best!

Omg I'm dyinggg everything about this collection is life
Amazing models and amazing soundtrack!
Wow, my new favorite fashion collection. It's all here

first time u would pay more attention to the models than the clothes
I love every piece of this collection
Wonderful show
Bravo Olivier! I was genuinely surprised by the qualtity of this collection, it's been a while!!
I only realised that were not one Insta girl during the final...fabulous
Best collection ever 😍😍😍
The pieces are architectural in nature and stunning too! And yes, no Hadid or Jenner girls I’m happy to say. But OMg that song at the beginning!!!!! Gorgeous!!!
One of the best songs ever!
So much creativity in every season.❤️
cindy bruna, dilone, elsa hosk, jourdan, maria borges, alessandra ambrosio and ming xi 😍😍😍
ALEXANDER DI ALMIBAR Zcqxxwww

This was extraordinarily beautiful.
I love how he separate the models from the queens Natasha and Natalia at the end.
Well she's not at the end with Natasha and Natalia to close the show. But yes, Magda is a queen
Tsai Tsai no
Jesús well I dont see Natasha wear The multi million dollar bra or opening the show when she's doin the VS show.. while Karolina open the show when she was only 16 and a year later she wore the fantasy bra that cost 10.5M and 2006 6.5M. pretty much Gisele and Karolina rules.
Tsai Tsai lol! Well you can tell that to the designers that keep booking Natasha in bluechip ads, the EIC that have booked Natasha in over 55 vogue covers and herself who turned down Victoria Secret. And she’s closing the show, not just a filler.
Jesús well I can't argue w that but wether youre coco for rocha, crazy karlie or nuts about Natasha, there was only one model who deserved model of the year is karolina kurkova back in 2012 and 2002.. two times already bruhhh. And I didnt c Natasha get any award yet..
Balmain definately one of the best designer brands out there right now
Natalia, Natasha, Magdalena, Bianca, Alessandra, Karolina, Sasha, Kassia, Jourdan, i mean excellent.
Olivier Rousteing rule. Balmain will always be my favorite.
Loved loved this collection!!!
Karolina Kurkova should be open this show , always slay queen KK
Gorgeous, accessible collection! Love the music too ❤
i dont know why but it made me love fashion more. Incredible
Very nice collection! Creative but not over the top. The pieces flow on the body and have nice movement and fluidity. These models were excellent, so many different looks. Love it!
What a gorgeous collection.
I would fire the CAMERAMAN
i know, terrible camera work. When the models are coming so close to you , you dont need to keep panning up and down , absolutely stupid!
Yes!!! So terrible
Love the entire collection ❤️❤️
I saw more than a couple of real models !!! Loves it
My computer's now full of screenshots. amazing collection
I was surprised when I listened to t.A.T.u's song
Nuri K me too lol

Queen Aquata 4:00 All the things she said
Nuri K name of song please

Nice to see some real models!
Eu vivi pra ver o Oliver mudar.... gracaaaaas a deuuuuuus
Eu fiz esse comentário quando só tinha visto 2 looks do desfile, mais daí começou vir os mesmos vestidos bordados e com franjas que é a cara do Oliver, ou seja, MAIS DO MESMO.
kkkk coitada da pessoa q compra isso... sai como se tivesse usando sempre a mesma bagaça
kkkkk arr
Nairan Marracho vai me dizer que os vestidos que lembram a estrutura da Torre Eiffel, as blusas de ombro vazado, as franjas, o tecido que parece rede vc ainda não tinha visto na balmain? Quando começou o desfile eu fiquei pasmo pq aquilo não podia ser balmain, mais fiquei pasmo de maneira Boa. Aliás a coleção ta muito Boa
Eu acredito que seja uma “identidade” balmain, assim como as outras grifes tem suas particularidades. Se víssemos franjas e babados em outros desfiles já falaríamos “imitou a balmain”. Eu acho super bacana as criações dele, sempre autênticas.
Amazing cast as always!
Blanca is literary the definition of beauty
Bianca
Francesca brugnetti ??? Blanca
Francesca brugnetti se llama Blanca
August Sidusgard es preciosa y talentosa ♡.♡
I concur
(Together with Barbara Palvin)
LOVED IT the models all look amazing and their walks we’re great ❤️
I love it love it
Great play on pattern and texture
ROMEEEEEEEEE ahhh so happy to see her here! my faavorite model
No Hadids and therefore, amazing show 😁😁😁
wow all my favorites songs in one show
cAN YOU SAY WHAT THE SONGS PLEASE?
so much better than his Fall-Winter 2017-18 collection.
Loved it!! loved everything about the show
cindy, natasha,magdalena, kasia, ming xi, jourdan, and alessandra my goddesses
This is like his best show in years. Everything was perfect , the music, the textures and not that overdrama like his last collections imo.
Just here for Natalia, Natasha, Kasia, Magda n the music💖!!!!
Beautiful at last!
Love that all the things she said and hijo de la Luna that song is very special to me and I was very surprised they included it
Wow i dont think i have seen Natalia Vodianova walk the runway in ages. Prob more than a decade. Great job Balmain for bringing these veteran models.
I remember her walking Alexander Wang and looking out of place stupid like a midget ostrich
She was never the best walker, but she oozes this soft and doll face beauty and has been a staple face of Calvin Klein. She is the most profitable Russian model if I'm right, and dedicates her life to good causes. Don't be mean Gigi, you not a veteran yet.
These clothes are everything
Real models only! Great casting for this show!
Woow jaw dropping, feminine edgy loved every piece
Thanks god for the perfect casting. Original Balmain definitely
Great Casting! ❤️Anna Selezneva, Bianca Balti, Magdalena Frackowiak, Natasha Poly, Natalia Vodianova, Kasia Struss, Karolina Kurkova, Georgia Fowler, Ming Xi, Jourdan Dunn, Blanca Padilla, Kate Grigorieva, Sasha Luss!!! Sublime
Ah so fresh and so fierce, the cutting, shilouette, fabrics. Great cast. Good job Olivier. But i dont like those transparents plastic things. But everything is amazing
Favorite Balmain Show
KK ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Off hadid and jenner. Yai
8:00 "Hijo de la Luna" OMFG!!!!
Great show.
