Olivier Rousteing’s motivation for SS19 at
Balmain? Paying tribute to Michael Jackson; the French Creative Director filled the runway with models clad in the singer’s famous white socks and black loafers under ’80s-inspired jeans – like this pair. Ripped and faded, the tapered silhouette is cut from denim imbued with stretch to ensure they’re comfortable enough for practicing your moonwalk (just keep it private, ok?).
