Balmain Menswear Fall 2011














The man behind Balmain, Christophe Decarnin, has designed a very casual collection, full of layering, featuring hoodies, blazers, coats, scarves, jeans etc. I must admit there were some outfits that I did not like as the layering had been taken a bit too far and also the return of the flannelette shirt is not something I will be rejoicing over - it can be done well, but here it is not. Australians will understand my feelings towards this very controversial wardrobe item. Overall though, I'm glad there is a brand like Balmain around for men, who aren't perhaps interested in suits or a dressy look but still want to indulge in some kind of creative styling.
