Balmania!

This season, Balmania has been captivating me and many others in the fashion world.The 80s are back! and... Balmain's spring 09 collection has magnificently revived the trends of one of the most fashionable eras. The highlights of the collection include military style coats with his signature massive shoulder pads, bandage dresses, deconstructed acid-wash jeans and killer studded stilletos, which all the models confidently strutted down the catwalk in. I absolutely adore the deep green sequined dress with you guessed it, massive shoulder pads. The dress is so luxurious, and utterly fabulous. The killer heels add an edge to the dress and illustrate the versatility of the label. Rather than most labels which focus on a certain look, Balmain's spring 09 collection encompasses a range of juxtaposing looks from the masculine blazer worn with dark trousers to the ultra feminine white bandage dress. I salute you Balmain, for bringing the 80s back in an unforgettable way!
