Olivier

I've decided it would be just about right for me to date Olivier Rousteing, the handsome 26-year old Parisian designer fresh off his second season at the helm of Balmain.  The collection ditched a lot of the obnoxious, Euro-trashy feel of the later Decarnin collections - when cliched torn up t-shirts went for nearly $1,000 - and brought back the sense of chic, over-the-top luxury and fun that re-made the brand at the end of the aughts.   Though this time, there was just a touch of elegance, and that's a difficult balance to strike--in fashion and in a boyfriend.
