Classic sporting designs are combined with delicate pastel colors in the all-new capsule collection from Evian and the luxury French fashion label Balmain. The 19-piece collection, which includes outerwear, swimsuits, T-shirts, sweatshirts, and backpacks, draws inspiration from the distinctive pastel-gradient cosmos of Evian.
The collection's dedication to environmentally friendly practices is reflected in the use of recycled plastic hangers and bags, paper packaging made with pulp from sustainably managed FSC-certified forests, and composition stickers and labels made of recycled polyester.
“We need to test and perfect new techniques in sourcing, recycling, upcycling, sustainably producing— and yes, I know, the list can sometimes seem endless. Luckily, Evian shares Balmain’s dedication to searching for new possibilities—and with this second Balmain x Evian capsule, we aim to make very clear that conscience and creativity can actually work quite well together," said Olivier Rousteing.
The limited-edition Balmain x Evian line is available on Balmain's website and in a few international retailers.
