Hello! Just wanted to see if anyone could give me some info on this piece! I think it's from the 80's, but I can't seem to find anything about the exact year/season. Any info on Balmain Ivoire the label would be helpful as well! Thanks :)
I found this photo on the VFG instagram page, but it doesn't say who posted it or who owns the photo.
This is a Balmain dress I examined in the V&A Collection.
The midriff section of the dark flowers is made by cutting out the dark pink flowers on the fabric and applique' them together. As I...
I pick this beauty up yesterday but I’m having a hard time placing the label. Obviously I’m hoping it’s real and would appreciate any info. This is the only tag I can find. Please share your thoughts! Thanks in advance!
Hellooo,
I have a question about Balmain r-t-w line. Was rtw called Balmain Ivoire when Erik Mortensen was the designer? Can I describe vintage Balmain blazer that has "Balmain Ivoire" label/tag as Pierre Balmain's r-tw? It was on the rtw f/w 1989/90 runway show.
thank youuu!
Hi there,
I’m just wondering if anyone has any information on the below Pierre Balmain bag. I believe it’s 1960s calf skin. But that’s all I know :)
Any information at all would be awesome!
Hello, I just signed up for this group, and I hope to get some answers about a pair of trousers. I recently bought these secondhand, and I’m trying to find out if they are vintage or modern, but I can’t find a label that matches mine in your list of labels for this designer. I’m wondering if...
Hello! I have a gorgeous 1950's Pierre Balmain Black Dress and I wonder if anyone here could help me pin point the collection, season, and/or year? I am also looking for a reference image. If anyone has a resources for images from his 1950's shows/ad/fashion magazine editorial I would love...
I just got what was described by an auction house as a '50s Pierre Balmain dress. The design seems to be congruent but it's a little concerning that the label says "Pierre Balmain of Paris" instead of just "Pierre Balmain, Paris. I can't seem to find any other example where Balmain used the...
Who is in charge of labels now? I can send you a label and photo of the garment. Would that help?
Shall I post them here are elsewhere? The garments are sometimes more interesting than others. That doesn't look at all like Balmain.
Here's the label and the jacket.
Hello everyone,
A friend of mind came across a great find while thrifting today. It's appears to be a Balmain jacket but she's not sure about it's authenticity since the label says (In French) it's a Pierre Balmain designed in Paris for Fashion of Florida in Miami. Does anyone know if this is...
Hello,
I was given this Pierre Balmain jacket by a relative a few years ago, and I have yet to find any information on it. Around what year was this jacket made? What is the story behind it, if any?
Was this one of the jackets designed by Pierre Balmain for the air force?
Also, what would...

Hi,
I'm needing advice on pricing a Vogue/Paris Original sewing pattern. It's pattern #1451 by Balmain. I'm going to sell the pattern but haven't been able to find any information on the internet and would like to offer a fair price. The pieces have been cut. A few pieces have been cut with...
Hi there

Also it's a gorgeous dress and it costs £16...

Came across this really sweet pierre balmain hat! I was examining the tag though and while it does look like a tag from 1945, it says "adaptation of" Pierre Balmain Paris. I haven't ever come across "adaptation" on a tag before. Does anyone know what this means exactly? Sounds like...
