Yvonne

Inspired by the extraordinary courage, cunning, and style of Jenny Yvonne “Ginette” Spanier, Pierre Balmain’s indispensable right hand during the house’s first three decades, the Yvonne frame riffs on the many aspects of that remarkable woman’s multifaceted character. An incredibly brave resistance hero during the war, Spanier later transformed herself into a celebrity in postwar Paris. During the many years that she oversaw the Balmain couture shows, boutiques, and ateliers, the European press and her best-selling books helped make her famous for her great style and passions for theatre, nightlife, and couture. Channeling the remarkable spirit of its namesake, the Yvonne mirrors the dualities of Spanier, offering a silhouette that is both stylish and serious; equally feminine and forceful.  Handmade in Japan. Includes Balmain box, hard case, soft case, cleaning cloth, and 1-year manufacturer warranty.
