High fashion line Balmain is teaming up with H&M. Yes, the Creative Director Olivier Rousteing was seen strutting the BBMA redcarpet with Jourdan Dunn and Kendall Jenner in celebration of the announcement. Dropping on November 5th, the collection will include a range of womenswear, menswear, accessories and shoes.
Rousteing dished on the forthcoming collaboration telling Style.com: “H&M approached the house. But it’s always been a dream to do it. When you do a collaboration with H&M, it’s a big step in the fashion industry. It’s a big achievement, professionally and also personally. Professionally, you build a world and they want to be part of it. They want to be part of the Balmain army, which is amazing. Personally, it’s an amazing challenge as a designer to make a collection for the street market and for the entire world. When you work for a superluxury brand, you don’t have so many stores, your vision isn’t the entire world. With H&M, you know you’re part of the world, you touch all the continents. I’ve always been loud about being about diversity and the world. So it’s perfect.”
