Balmain Creative Director Olivier Rousteing is throwing open the doors of his Parisian mansion.

Olivier's house is opulent but liveable. He spoke about each space with ease like he built it himself.

[@annettewashington7491]

You should know about your home... his is very nice🪴

[@ccc-qp7el]

Well it's kinda everywhere just art and expensive so I'm glad he knows everything he invested on. It does look like paradise ngl.

[@JojoLannister]

Why you called her a “he”??

[@RoethNestor]

I have a burgundy *hotdups* tabby bag and I love this bag. I actually swapped two straps and put a chain on top and I'm obsessed with it.

[@nevskaya915]

Your house looks very original.

[@DabzM]

This is so relatable. "My bank account isn't happy, but I am" 😂😅 me every time I buy something expensive

[@CandaceMenjares]

Love *jklux* the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other KZbinr can show off bags in as much detail as you.

[@SoyMillionaria888]

😂😂😂😂me too😂😂😂

[@LePeruggin]

😂

[@mmd2035]

Except you are not nearly as wealthy😂

[@RoethNestor]

There is no point in being selectively angry. So you don’t believe in buying fake bags, a purchase is a purchase, regardless of the intention. I personally think it's crazy to care too much about how people want to spend their money. I bought real coach, marc jacobs, and mcm. If it's more than 1500, I'll buy a replica *hotdups* . Guess what else I have in the bank, I'm a homeowner and drive a Lexus. I saw someone on KZbin who had tons of luxury items, lived in their mom's house, and was broke

[@tls4022]

I fkn LOVE his interior taste. Very extravagant, grand, masculine but feminine and warm at the same time.

[@OttiligeChristaldi]

Loved everything you’ve showed here! I was really surprised about the *gtdupe* crossbody. Love it!

He conducted this entire viewing in English which is not his native language and he was flawless. I marvel at how people from outside of English speaking countries are bilingual. Anywho, this home is just beyond beautiful. It is absolute opulence. I love the black offset by the natural light and adorned with the greenery. Well done.

[@gg5508]

[@irisbrejean8019]

That’s so nice 😊 Most people in the world know between 2 to 5 languages. For example, in the city where I live in Germany, almost everyone speaks a minimum of 3 languages. It is such an amazing thing.

[@Katyloveheart]

It's better to learn at a young age ,it easier than learning as an adult. In my country it is a mandatory second language to learn because there too many native languages and English is used as a middle ground

[@crystal-83638]

Olivier's home is lovely and so him, in the best way! Also, his warm charisma makes him seem like a welcoming host 🖤

[@upper339]

He has to be the first designer I've known of that still seems down to earth and have not out grown his body because of his success..

I’ve always heard he was a kind person, but omg!!!!! Just from this video you can feel that peaceful kindness from start to finish. I’m so happy to see he’s built the home of his dreams. So beautiful!

[@godsqueen9437]

Okay, it's Paris but it's giving fresh, tropical, organic Caribbean vibes. He literally pulls the outside in by continuously being surrounded by natural elements in his interior decor. A Natural breeze passing throughout the house is all it needs

[@hebah025]

The black offset with the natural green in the plants is giving me such a clean pure energy and vibe. I'm in love with this house 🥺💕

[@jinopang-lj1wd]

I didn't realize GreenxBlack works so well...no wonder my Monstera pops with a black backdrop

[@patriciacooper2529]

His home is pure artistry and the way he describes it, just beautiful.

[@Zincink]

Ahh the box of pens. This is the Karl imprint. This home is pleasing to the eye and just the right amount of glamour. I could easily feel comfy in the space. I admire the ginormous tree. If anything he could always add a plexiglass roof square when the tree gets larger. It’s nice to see him admiring his photos.

[@valvacious2793]

At last something different and exciting! Not cookie cutter. Fabulous home with individual style! So Much Beauty and Elegance! I luv it!

[@SoftEarthHoney]

Olivier seems like such a sweet soul, he has such gentle energy. His home reflects his creativity, his appreciation for his blessings and his sweet sense of self. His morning juice routine sounds so good and I just love how he’s so proud of the little things (his juice, his backgammon game, his ashtray lol). He’s very likeable and has the most beautiful eyes!

[@GLITTERandSKULLZ]

All the black and hardness mixed with all the greenery makes it feel warm, lush and luxurious.

[@charissemodeste6489]

As a person who's had her guests come over and fall asleep... I was happily nodding and smiling in agreement, with the importance of "good energy" and "calm" in his Space, I laughed aloud at how similar our Spirits are... up for a good time, but we also CHERISH our alone time... I should probably share this with my friends... they might finally get me. Maybe..

[@shadesofvintageblue]

His home is an oasis. So peaceful and zen like. Really love how he put everything together seamlessly.

"Black is more than a color, I would say it's a lifestyle." Yes, I totally get it. I was like that in my 20's. I am liking the peacefulness, the light, the airiness, the tree accents, and the special little touches. And I LOVE his hair/braids, and shape of his outfit.

Magical, glamorous and incredible. Transmits peace and incredible energy. I loved everything, the golden eagle flying over the nest with the amethyst in the center is incredibly beautiful. I also love marble. The photos of women also inspire me and the predominant black color is unique. The sofas, the cushions and the bed that resembles a rug. All very incredibly chic. I simply loved.

He talks about how private his house is and how careful he is about showing it to people because he thinks his house reveals a lot about him and he wants to make sure that not everyone knows so much about him while a camera crew is filming his house, including Bedroom and bed in order to then make the video freely accessible to everyone on the Internet. That's crazy.

[@atiro3998]

their royalty is a lot for a single design, not to mention if they do collaboration with other brand, they can breakdown into different copy rights, the pattern, the accessories, the design line, the colors, and each collection whenever top celebrities want to wear it, they get paid for renting that specific dress, because they do not need promotions from celebrities on the other way around the celebrities prestige is at stakes if wear their design from specific collections.
