This striking Balmain jacket is from the highly-coveted Fall/Winter 2010 collection, designed under the creative direction of Christophe Decarnin. Decarnin’s Balmain was known for its sharp tailoring, opulent details, and rock-chic attitude that redefined the house and set the tone for 2010s fashion. This military-inspired jacket features bold shoulder epaulettes with metallic rope fringe, intricate braided trims, signature engraved metal buttons, and a dramatic tailcoat silhouette. Crafted in army green cotton with patch pockets and an elongated back, it’s instantly recognizable from the runway.
Marked a size 40 and fits true to size. Good vintage condition with a purposely distressed finish (as intended by the designer), and only minor, barely visible spots from gentle wear—no major flaws. Comparable pieces from this collection retailed for around €10,000, underscoring its status as a true collector’s item.
