The Original Supermodels Are The Face of Balmain SS16

Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, and Claudia Schiffer are the faces for the Balmain Spring/Summer 2016 campaign.

Olivier Rousteing explains why Balmain chose the iconic trio: "When I was a schoolboy in Bordeaux, it was their editorials that first made clear to me the amazing transformative power of fashion. Still today, many years on, their iconic images are often found amongst the jumble on mood boards in my atelier. To say that working with them was a dream come true is no exaggeration."
