OLIVIER - II - Balmain
More Balmain than this, impossible. Impeccably embodying the singular DNA of the historic house, the Olivier II is a release of only 500 numbered frames that builds upon Olivier Rousteing’s fresh spins on Pierre Balmain’s precision- tailored “New French Style.” This season’s additions of textured rayure pattern, powerfully angular edges and the boldest of PB monograms clearly echo the surprising and groundbreaking lines of Balmain’s now-iconic, postwar perfume bottles—originally introduced in 1946, and recently revived for this year’s Balmain Beauty launch. These compelling visual and tactile crafted elements, combined with the limited-edition frame’s glossy black-and-gold geometries channeling the architectural finesse behind the house founder’s most celebrated sculptural couture designs, guarantee the perfect homage to the multisensory genius behind the house’s most celebrated couture creations.
