Balmain’s latest collection marks a dramatic new chapter for the house as Creative Director Antonin Tron debuts, pivoting from Olivier Rousteing’s high-octane maximalism to a vision he dubs "Minimal Opulence." Drawing heavily on Pierre Balmain’s 1940s archives and 1950s film noir, the lineup merges razor-sharp tailoring and sculptural silhouettes with fluid, liquid-jersey gowns. These Balmain ankle boots are crafted of leather, showcasing an architectural covered wedge heel.
