| Olivier Rousteing |
Since Christophe Decarnin left earlier this month over strategic disputes with chairman Alain Hivelin and amid rumours over his mental state, many a name has been banded about as his replacement. But Balmain have confirmed that 25 year old Rousteing, currently in charge of womenwear at the label, is to step into Decarnin’s formidable shoes.
Decarnin took Balmain from a creaky, aging label into a white hot brand loved by models, fashionistas and celebrities. His ripped jeans sell around the £1000 mark and his exaggerated shoulder jackets have been copied from runway to the high street.
Olivier Rousteing has a large shadow to step out from and we wish him all the best!
