BALMAIN

Some thoughts on the Balmain collection. I like the knee panelling & rise detail. The picture on the left is from Unknown Factory, which is a cool way of getting some shape into the knee of a skinny. I think women's jeans are taking more influences from men's jeans and getting more detail driven (on top of the fit/silhouette influence from premium jeans). I saw some mens jeans from Salsa denim with exactly this holster shaping on the rise, but I can't find them on their website (www.salsajeans.com).

Going to match all those Biker jackets the kids are wearing.
