EGYPTIAN GOLD
Balmain’s Resort 2023 collection found inspiration in Egypt’s maximal-meets-minimal dynamic, relying on the finesse of the Balmain ateliers for sleek and sensual, perfectly tailored, woven, pleated and draped designs—which were wonderfully complemented by intense Egyptian blues, scarab-inspired iridescents and many ornate plays on animal patterns, serpents and plumage. Throughout, Olivier Rousteing included several incredible creations relying on shining gilded touches and surfaces, for a truly luxe collection.
