Balmain x The Harder They Fall introduces the first-ever luxury fashion collaboration from Netflix and it coincides with the global release of a new American Western film starring Idris Elba. The limited-edition collection of clothing and accessories has a look that matches the boldness of the film and Balmain's signature runway style.
The collaborative pieces capture the American Western spirit with fringed bags, suede bolero jackets and apparel studded with grommets.
Balmain’s creative director Olivier Rousteing was approached to design a few costumes for the film and the limited-edition Balmain x The Harder They Fall collaboration came as a result. The exclusive collection can be found online via Balmain, select retail flagship locations, plus the Netflix.shop and Farfetch as of early November. Farfetch will also be creating 3D social content for Instagram so that fans can feel truly immersed in the film and its fashion.
