When Balmain announced that Olivier Rousteing will replace
Christophe Decarnin as the label’s head designer, there was curiosity about him and the world
of fashion already kept a tight watch on this new kid at the bit.
According to the press release, Rousteing had been in charge
of Balmain’s womenswear studio since 2009 and previously spent five years at
Roberto Cavalli, where he was promoted to designer of women’s and men’s
ready-to-wear collections.
He is French-born, was raised in Bordeaux, and completed his
fashion studies at ESMOD in Paris in 2003. Rousteing holds a degree from the
Parisian fashion school, l’Ecole Supérieure des Arts et techniques de la Mode.
