Balmain Sunglasses
Balmain is a luxury fashion brand synonymous with high-end fashion for over 75 years. Founded in 1945 by Pierre Balmain, the brand has established itself as a leader in the fashion industry, known for its opulent and luxurious designs. Balmain sunglasses are a stunning collection of eyewear that reflects the brand's reputation for style, elegance, and quality.
Balmain first introduced its sunglasses line in 2015, and they have quickly become a favourite among fashion-forward individuals who want to add a touch of luxury to their look. At the beginning of 2020, Balmain revealed its new eyewear collection with the newly-established Akoni group.
With products of a higher price point than their previous collection with L'Amy Group, with who they ended their license in 2017, the new collection is the epitome of luxury eyewear. Olivier Rousteing, the Creative Director of Balmain, expressed that he wanted to bring Balmain's eyewearcollection to the same level as their ready-to-wear and haute-couture collections, and partnering with the Akoni Group was the right move to elevate this product line.
Balmain Sunglasses add a touch of luxury to any look, featuring styles from oversized square frames to wraparound shield models - most featuring intricate detailing and a touch of gold.
Balmain's history dates back to the end of World War II when Pierre Balmain opened his first couture house in Paris; he quickly became known for his elegant and refined designs, worn by some of the most stylish women of the time, including Brigitte Bardot, Sophia Loren, and Marlene Dietrich. Through the decades, Balmain has remained a symbol of luxury and sophistication, with its iconic designs gracing runways and red carpets worldwide.
The Balmain sunglasses collection reflects the brand's legacy of elegance and refinement with classic yet modernised designs. These frames are the perfect accessory for those who appreciate quality, style, and attention to detail.
