Balmain, in collaboration with Disney, has launched a collection celebrating the 30th anniversary of The Lion King. Led by creative director Olivier Rousteing, the line features high-fashion interpretations inspired by the film's themes and characters, with a focus on African design talent. Rousteing's personal connection to the story as an adopted child mirrors Simba's journey, reflecting themes of heritage and resilience. The collection includes a range of clothing and accessories, incorporating wildlife motifs and colorful prints, presented in a blend of Parisian couture and African cultural richness.
