| What is Balmain? | Balmain is a French luxury fashion house known for elegance and sophistication that was founded by Pierre Balmain in 1945. |
|---|---|
| How to pronounce Balmain | The correct pronunciation is bahl-mahhhhn or bal-MAH-n. Don't place too much emphasis on the 'n' sound. The 'n' should be pronounced softly in French names like Balmain and Lanvin. |

| Who owns Balmain? | Mayhoola Investments, the Qatari royal family's investment fund, acquired Balmain in 2016 for a figure reported as close to €500 million. The Arab country has been accused of allowing terror financiers to operate within its borders. |
| Why are Balmain jeans so expensive? | It all comes down to brand positioning and what customers are willing to pay for jeans. Many consumers seem happy to pay a premium for the aura of exclusivity that Balmain provides. While the haute couture house may use more expensive materials than cheaper brands, this alone does not explain why their jeans are so expensive. |
| What does Balmain mean? | The brand is named after its founder, Pierre Alexandre Claudius Balmain, who died in 1982. |
