LOOKBOOK AW 14-15

Cléo Baele and Sarah Bos are the creative duo behindBLACK BALLOON, a label from Ghent, Belgium. A brand of clothing, shoes and accessories for men and women, where music and emotions set the tone.

The men and woman-collections of this duo combine female and tough elements, simply yet edgy, with an eye for detail and refinement “Belgian Nouveau Chic” as they like to call it. Next to their prêt-à-porter collection, made-to-measure and handmade outfits, they also have a premiumBLACK Collection, a total concept but filled with custom made prints and ingenious designs. Every time with that extra va-va-voom, as if there’s music in their designs and they turned it up a notch!

They’ve won the prestigious Fred and Ginger price for the most promising collection in 2009. And recently in 2013 the “Prix Paris Capital” for best foreign men collection.

They had the honour to design for many music artists as Arno (Le Chevalier des Arts.), Baloji (former rapper withStarflam), An Pierlé, and Jessie Ware (UK based singer, known from “Wildest Moments”) outed her as aBlack Balloon fan on twitter.
