Walk the Walk: Balmain F/W 2014 Collection

It looks like Olivier Rousteing is brining us to his version of Safari for the F/W 2014 season! In my opinion, this is his best collection to date.

The signature boxy silhouette continues to show up in this collection, but with a more military twist. The weaving technique in this collection is breathtaking, especially the top made of ropes. Pleats and draping ropes add a nice feminine vibe to this bold collection. Overall, I strongly believe this collection is inspired by Rihanna (why not? She is the face of the S/S 2014 campaign), and will probably see a few pieces in her up coming tour.


Pros:
- Love the entire safari theme with Olivier's own twist.
- The weaving technique is amazing!
- Even though the collection is very bold and edgy, because of the pleats, and the layered skirts, there is still a very strong feminine vibe.
- Those Obi-Wan belts will be a hit!
- Most of the pieces in this collection are very wearable (as long as you have the money for them).

Eye Candies:
- All of them
