Olivier Rousteing, creative director of the Balmain fashion house, shared sad news on Instagram* (Meta Platforms Inc. and the social networks Facebook and Instagram are banned in Russia. – BURO Note.) More than 50 items from the spring collection- brand summer for the next fashion show were stolen during transport.
The designer captioned the photo: “Woke up this morning smiling, planning to get ready for the next show and begin the fitting process. And this is what happened… 50 Balmain items were stolen. While transporting the collection, the van was intercepted. Thank God the driver is safe. Many people worked hard to bring this collection to life. We are redoing everything, but this is very disrespectful to our team, to the suppliers and to me personally. Please be careful and remember the world we live in. We will not give up. With love, OR”
Let us remember that Beyoncé and Olivier Rousteing jointly developed the Renaissance Couture collection. The collaboration is inspired by the singer’s album “Renaissance”; the designer couldn’t stop listening to Beyoncé’s new album.
