''Balmain (French: [balmɛ̃]) is a French fashion house that was founded by Pierre Balmain. Balmain was born in 1914 in France. His father owned a drapery business and his mother and sister owned a fashion boutique where he often worked after his father’s death in 1921. He always had a love of fashion and an eye for design. He attended the École des Beaux-Arts in 1933-1934 with intent to study architecture but instead ended up spending the majority of his time designing dresses. After working for atelier Robert Piquet as a freelance artist and spending time with Edward Molyneux, he left school to work for Molyneux. In the late 1930s, he served in the French air force and the army pioneer corps. After peace was declared, he worked at Lucien Lelong and opened his own fashion house under his name. He released his first collection in 1945 and his first fragrance in 1949. While at Lelong, he met Christian Dior, a designer who would play a huge role in Balmain’s career and the postwar fashion industry in general.''

This post is laughable, you're accusing me of knowing nothing about fashion, yet you're copy and pasting from wiki
I'm guessing you're one of those people that are head to toe wearing logos and thinks that automatically makes you stylish & knowledgable about the fashion industry?
Balmain has undeniably became extremely well known due to the Kardashians. 99% of people hadn't heard of it beforehand.
Balmain was not and will never be an iconic and super well known brand such as Chanel, De La Renta, Louis Vuitton, Valentino & Dior. Despite this, the Kardashian family have catapulted Balmain into fame.
