While Pierre Balmain was known for his elegant pieces, Balmain under Christophe today is all about edgy, rock and roll style. And even though I am not exactly a punk-y kind of girl, I'm loving the dhoti pants (as seen on Emmanuelle above), and the skinny leather pants of F/W '08...


See how Emmanuelle is rocking it...just effortless!

And I'm enthralled to say the least, with the new shape of his le smoking for Spring/Summer '09...

If you think these pieces are drool-worthy enough, I'm not yet done! I leave you with the Balmain fringe ankle boot for F/W 2008 as seen on Vogue Nippon Creative Director Anna Dello Russo. I call it, The Minnetonka fringe boots' higher, badder, runway sister!
