Pierre Balmain Spring Summer 2012 Mens Collection

Here's a look at the fresh debut collection from Balmain's second line, Pierre Balmain. Under the creative direction of Frank Durand (Emmanuelle Alt's husband), the rock star sensibility is ever present. It almost feel like Christophe Decarnin's work, but in a more parred down, less 'destroyed' way.

Will you be buying into this collection... Even if the pricing is much accessible than the mainline?

I have to admit, the collection looked mundane and expected. Underwhelmed with all the predictable pieces that we have seen recurred from the main line. However, wearability is definitely a success, anyone can fit into many of the pieces.
