BALMAIN DREAMS: OR 10

Client: Z2 Comics/Balmain Paris

Once every 100 years, The Balmain Army Gala serves as a marker to the universe of what it means to transcend time, space and the realities of fashion. This exclusive event draws the attention of beings everywhere and is celebrated in the furthest reaches of every galaxy. Join us this centennial as we celebrate the creative mind of Olivier Rousteing and follow him through the creative process behind some of his most iconic looks. 

A thematic anthology, this collaboration between Balmain Paris and Z2 Comics contains over a dozen illustrated short stories, each one highlighting a different look from some of Olivier Rousteing’s most celebrated collections from the last ten years. These images depict the many fantasies and dreamscapes that served as Olivier’s inspiration when designing and showcases the many possible worlds that Balmain fashion represents.
