Arcade

The Balmain - Arcade Optical is a sharp architectural declaration that expands the House's rimless offering with masterful structural rigor. Born from Pierre Balmain's 1945 Parisian couture heritage and the foundational duality between architecture and couture—Monsieur Balmain was originally trained as an architect—the frame amplifies the House's design vocabulary drawn from his seminal "geometric centers of the dresses." Diamond-cut lenses deliver clarity and definition, while the signature colonette temple takes on a sculptural, volumetric form. Titanium and acetate are precisely combined, accented with orné rings inspired by vintage jewelry. Shiny and matte finishes play in refined contrast, delicate lines meet sculptural temples, and a laser-etched PB logo completes the architectural narrative. A modern, audacious expression of the House's enduring Parisian sophistication. Handmade in Japan. Includes Balmain box, hard case, soft case, cleaning cloth, and 1-year manufacturer warranty.  Authorized Balmain® Store
