2022 is Coming in Hot with Savage X Fenty’s US Stores

Barbie Pink to Make Balmain Wink
Ever imagined a barbie girl living in a Balmain world? French luxury fashion house, Balmain are toying with that very idea this season as they collaborate with Mattel’s Barbie doll. Drawing inspiration from Balmain’s elevated aesthetic and the diverse style of the Parisian boulevard with splashes of 90’s nostalgic Barbie pink, the brands present a unisex, fashion and accessories collection. Ready-to-wear pieces of tees, dungarees and hoodies are amongst signature mermaid dresses and structured tailoring; splashed with soft blushes and bubble-gum tones between the signature marinere and Labyrinth patterns. No longer will Barbie and Ken follow gender ideals but instead be interchangeable in this multi-cultural, inclusive and joy-filled 50-piece collection. What’s more, the brand has also entered the virtual world of NFT’s through their online avatars. Connecting both the physical world and digital metaverse, each garment comes with virtual artwork too!
