Paris Fashion Week A/W 2011: Womenswear
Balmain
By now the house codes that Christophe Decarnin has implemented at Balmain have been carved into 21st century stone: each season there are the leg-sucking jeans worn with an outrageously bedazzled snug jacket, the butt-grazing dresses paired with zillion-inch stilettos and slashed T-shirts that end up costing more than an average month's rent in Manhattan. Happily, Decarnin knows how to re-dress these party girl favorites, so that his faithful clientele keep coming back for more. This season, the denim is white, the killer heel is a slouchy white pointed boot, the skinny pant appears in breeches form, and the sparkle comes in the form of giant crystals, gold tinsel-like fringe and shaved fur, all embroidered together.
