Balmain Brings in the Cavalry for Its 2016 Fall/Winter Collection
The military-inspired theme is still strong this year.
French fashion house Balmain keeps with its signature military/cavalry-inspired theme for this year’s fall collection, not unlike its recent collaboration with H&M late last year. Also synonymous to the label, the collection sports a bold yet simple color palette of mostly red, blue and black — imprints from the brand heralded and appropriated by Creative Director Olivier Rousting. While the season commonly depicts layers and of course outerwear, all found within the range, the standout pieces for Fall 2016 from Balmain includes a comeback of the knee-high boot, and military jacket and coats, as well as the use of classic patterns such as checks and stripes.
