Balmain's ferocious fall AW14 line reminds us there's more to power dressing than a tailored suit at Paris Fashion Week, February 2014
Balmain AW14 mixed the exotic with the totally fierce for its Paris showcase this season.

Proving glamour is as much in the attitude of the piece as it is in the embellishment, the French couturier used flared leather panels reminsiensent of armour, layered leopard print, peplum hems and bags of gold jewellery to add spunk and tenacity to his collection.
