Military Modern Rock Goth Street Style In Balmain Fall-Winter Menswear

Posted by Leo Leave a Comment

Olivier Rousteing behind Balmain presented new Autumn-Winter season's menswear collection. Speaking of inspiration, I see modern goth to royal military luxe touches. You are going to find hints of military looks, as well as motocross and sporty references, but the overall mood is dressy and somewhat slouchy preppy. Male models appear in jackets studded with crystals, slouchy palazzo pants, tight biker skinnies, udo-belted velvet waistcoats, cool beanies, etc. All in all, it's an extravagant collection with right dose of sophistication, vulgarity and preppiness.

Glossy black leather quilted jacket looks pretty awesome styled with palazzo black leather trousers. In love with black leather shoes embellished with tassels.

Bad boy comes in town in the latest Balmain spring-summer season's lookbook. Label's creative director Olivier Rousteing was inspired by 1970s skiing, motorcycle racing and Formula 1 which were seen in his graphic and energetic looks. I love the way Rousteing incorporated sports with sophisticated details. The key colors of summer are red, black and white- true colors of real racing. I personally see kind of military style, athlete superstar and formal wear combinations in this collection. All the presented looks are ideal for streetwear. All in all, the looks are bold, masculine and edgy.
