BALMAIN MENS SS26

Menswear in the Resort 2026 collection executes a ‘radical-conservative’ interplay, contrasting sharply tailored pieces raining from angular and fitted to oversized and softer, with sportswear crafted from denim, leather, or jacquard.

The collection seamlessly blends elements of classic French bourgeois style with contemporary street silhouettes, all rendered in refined tailored fabrications. The showroom also features additional strong pieces not included in the lookbook, such as labyrinth-patterned shirt and short sets, hybrid leather and wool stadium jacket blousons, and bouclé overshirts.

This constant exploration of the brand’s heritage, expressed in novel ways each season, remains a central tenet of Olivier Rousteing’s design philosophy.

  • “You know, I’m known for the Balmain Army that is always fighting. This time, it’s more about self confidence. This is not armour, this is freedom.”

    – Olivier Rousteing
