BALMAIN X THE LION KING
"I was only nine years old when 'The Lion King' first released, but even now, almost three decades later, I can close my eyes and replay that incredible mix of music, images, and emotions. The lessons I absorbed, as I sat transfixed by the giant screen, have stayed with me for life." - Olivier Rousting.
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of “The Lion King,” Balmain has partnered with Disney for a special, limited-edition collection designed by Olivier Rousteing. Those designs are featured in a film shot by Femi Oladigbolu in South Africa, which blends together striking designs and breathtaking scenery, as it focuses on a Rousteing-led Balmain Army, composed of models from all across Africa.
The #BALMAINxTHELIONKING collection is available worldwide on July 8th. ‪@BALMAIN‬
