Authentic coat dress Pierre Balmain, a structured and iconic piece with a distinctly couture look, inspired by the military aesthetic cherished by the house. Made from slightly faded navy blue cotton denim, it features a fitted silhouette that flares at the hem, an officer collar, and asymmetric double-breasted fastening adorned with branded gold buttons. The long sleeves showcase subtle quilted detailing, while the vertical cuts elegantly structure the silhouette. A strong, graphic, and elegant piece, to be worn as a dress or as a light coat.
