The Pokémon x Balmain Trainer Fashion Set

The Pokémon x Balmain Trainer Fashion Set is a limited-edition capsule collection from the popular anime and luxury fashion house.

Pikachu, undoubtedly the most famous figure from the franchise, is featured prominently across a variety of goods and styles in this collection. Together with SharpEnd, the compilation was released on September 5.

The creative director of Balmain, Olivier Rousteing, had this to say about the Pokémon x Balmain Trainer Fashion Set: "Today, they make me think of an earlier, simpler time, when we all shared a rosy vision of all the positive changes that we were certain that digital innovations would make possible. And that’s a key reason why I’m so happy to partner with Pokémon on this collection — because, right now, we could all use a reminder of those past moments of hope and optimism.”
