Balmain's Main Man...Leaving?

Christopher Decarnin, one of YEOJ's favorite designers is ending his 6 year stay with the design house label. The only reason released is that it is just "the end of the collaboration." This is a shock because he has made the brand so fabulous these past years. Critics have made remarks about this haute rock n' roll brand as borderline trashy with all of the glitz and glamour. According to YEOJ the critics are tasteless...YEOJ is a  critic and YEOJ loves it and Christopher. There hasn't been a replacement made for Balmain but we at YEOJ hope it is someone with the talent as the magnificent Mr. Decarnin.
