Balmain Runway Show Fall 2016
See Kendall and Gigi Walk the Balmain Runway — If You Can Tell Them Apart
The models might have swapped hair colors for the Fall '16 Balmain show, but that wasn't the only surprise Olivier Rousteing sprung on us. The creative director staged a runway complete with a live orchestra, casting all your favorite It girls from his well-known army: Kendall Jenner debuted the first and last look of the new collection as a platinum blonde, Gigi Hadid followed with dark-brown locks, and Devon Windsor, Sara Sampaio, Cindy Bruna, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Lily Donaldson, Jourdan Dunn, Binx Walton, Joan Smalls, Lindsey Wixson, Stella Maxwell, Karlie Kloss, and Alessandra Ambrosio were there too.
As for the clothes? Rousteing brought his signature sexy twists, but in a surprising color palette that included shades like powder blue and baby pink. Fringe minidresses shook, suede thigh-high boots reached new heights, lace-up bustiers were clasped with wide metal belts, and full lace-and-ruffle or velvet bodysuits spoke to the girl with the boldest evening look of them all. Kim Kardashian, we're looking at you. Read on to see the buzziest moments from Balmain — our favorite being when Kendall gave Olivier a subtle high-five before he took his bow — and see if you can tell your favorite supermodels apart.
