Looks Can Be Deceiving

This is Christophe Decarnin:

Who is this kooky-looking guy? He is the mind-blowing GENIUS behind the amazing collection that is Balmain's S/S 2009 RTW. He may not look like a million bucks, but damn his collection does. I would probably die if I got to wear one of his pieces. I would probably DIE!!! <3
