BALMAIN
Balmain brought up high fashion to Austin during SXSW week. The radiant Loreal Sarkisian donned two looks while hosting a beautiful ladies luncheon at Lutie’s followed by shopping and bubbles in a room at The Commodore Perry estate. She was back for an intimate dinner that evening, this time striking in black and red, where she was joined by Olivier Rousteing, the designer for Paris fashion house since 2009, who earlier was the featured speaker at a session titled, “Melding Heritage and Innovation.”
