Outfitted

Lately we’ve been completely infatuated with the new SS2010 Balmain Hommes collection and Christophe Decarnin’s ode to the moto-meets-military man. The simple yet intricate looks of Balmain Hommes this season have ushered in a revitalized sense of masculinity that ruled the shows this past fall. Part elegant and part grunge, there’s just something so inexplicably intoxicating about this juxtaposition of styles. And yes, this is a predominately black outfit meant to be worn in the Spring-Summer season. A bold statement indeed…
