By Alex Valenzuela Each season, Balmain’s collection gets better and better. I will always remember there “baroque” inspired collection last fall and this fall I was just as pleased with their designs. From fully embellished micro mini dresses, jackets, and pants to fringe, beading, and mosaic tiles, it was all about detail for Balmain. With…
