Naomi Campbell closes Balmain menswear show in showstopping style
Naomi Campbell's latest runway moment is pure gold.
The supermodel closed Balmain's men's Fall/Winter 2024 show this weekend by donning a luxurious ensemble that was truly showstopping.
Campbell was the only woman to participate in the show, and commanded attention by wearing a gold headdress that ran down vertically from the middle of her head and through the center of her face, ending under her chin.
Her look was paired with a blouse that featured a deep, plunging neckline, plus black trousers and flat patent leather shoes. There was also a life-sized gold bouquet affixed to a wide gold belt, held by a pair of faux gold hands.
Campbell's ensemble was completed with an oversized camel-toned coat.
Makeup was kept neutral, with pops of metallic gold eyeshadow near the inner ducts of her eyes, while she rocked her signature long, straight hair with a middle part.
Balmain's latest show featured an array of colorful silhouettes, dazzling graphics and, overall, a unique take on maximalist style.
Creative director Olivier Rousteing was inspired by the "sapeur" cultural movement, according to a post from the luxury label. From this inspiration, a rich mix of tailored French silhouettes and colorful African patterns were seen and celebrated.
"The ensemble results in a freeing, maximalist display that marks an unapologetic stake in the sand: a vision of luxury is whatever we make it," Balmain captioned a video showing glimpses of the show.
In addition to Rousteing's dynamic presentation, several other Paris Fashion Week moments have been bubbling up, including Pharrell Williams' Western spin on the Louis Vuitton Fall 2024 men's collection.
