i loove this collection!the prints look so fresh and the knits are fantastic.the shapes of the skirts are also a great addition!but i do think that in some looks the color blocking doesn't look so great;it makes the models look old and sad.
the jackest the minimalism the net dresses and jackets , this man (nicholas) is moving us into a very chic and subtle way of dressing i just love this collection , so does ana wintour that's why she has many peaces on the SEP issue of VOGUE. people that say they dont like it ,, need to go see gucci and d&g , cause you all dont quite grip this high sense of fashion. my gohd .....
my favourite show of the season, the people commenting negatively i dont tihnk are looking deep enough, the references are SO subtle, the proportion amazing, hidden sexuality, its a really amazing collection, the calf length skirts and those gilets and coats are stunning
Comparing this with the Spring collection, I actually liked the Spring collection better. If you look at the pieces individually, there's alot of good stuff here. I'm not too sure about how it's put together in ensembles, though. I think the lighting was horrible, too; I can't SEE the clothes!!! Still, you have to give the guy kudos for at least trying to experiment with new shapes.
This Balenciaga by Nicolas Ghesquiere was exquisitely created and engineered. I love how the fake leather and fabrics were sewn together and how the archival elements of Balenciaga were a trend in this entire collection. Ghesquiere can never go wrong with his great confident creativity was demonstrated in this collection.
I have to agree with some of the previous comments in here. Definitely an interesting collection. I thought it was good, not WOW but interesting...the combinations/colors/textures...where not the norm and kept it interesting, the music was perfect...all in all it wasn't bad...I do feel though if I were to turn something like some of those pieces in at fashion school, I would not get a good grade...I guess when you get to that level in the industry, you can make funky things and not have to worry
Not to mention Christian Dior was a student of Cristobal Balenciaga's, who blatantly ripped Mr. Balenciaga off with his silhouettes. Cristobal was far ahead of the times he was in and only now some people are beginning to take notice.
Listen, all of you that say that Balenciaga isn't Balenciaga anymore couldn't be more wrong. If it wasn't for Ghesquiere the world wouldn't even be aware of the brand. Ghesquiere is a genius, it's about bringing the brand to the future. Cristobals designs at his time were considered futuristic with his glorious cocoon shapes. Don't shit on someone for being creative, while you all walk around if not wearing Balenciaga by Nicholas Ghesquiere, at least wearing a style he made popular years ago.
Are you serious? The coats are completely inspired by Cristobal Balenciaga archives; each relevant designer today has inadvertently made their respective house their own - you need look no further than Tisci at Givenchy. It's about innovation - Balenciaga was an innovator; as is Ghesquiere. I'll get off my pedestal once I stress the importance of the 'collection' concept - a collection is to be cohesive and consistent, is it not? E.g. Karl's for Chanel? I mean, come on...
focusing on the colection i think now he is in a very personal way, he is doing so much ghesquiere and i dont think should use balenciaga name to do it... we are talking about cristobal balenciaga the best couturier
@Lovekatemoss2 I agree, though this collection is amazing, in my opinion, it's not relevant to Balenciaga's roots. I just finished watching a mini documentary in Spanish of his detailed work and it amazed me and then I thought about how the line is today, I don't see similarity. Balenciaga is not Balenciaga anymore...
@Zacatecana91 so it should be he is using balenciaga name and the shop in paris is at the same building.... i really think they need to change designer, he did great collections since 2006 to 2009 but then started doing his own just guesquiere.....
Que BEllA, hermosa coleccion de nicolas ghesquiere para balenciaga, lo que mas me impresiona es que mantiene la esencia de balenciaga . Siluestas diferentes arriesgadas pero alagadoras ,texturas muy unicas y una dedicacion y absoluta pasion por lO Que llamamos MoDa muaaaaaaak artista por excelencia=)
i just cant look at this vid, i didnt finish it.. the vid's resolution looks like it was taken in 1995.

these balenciaga collections are way too repetitive. you get the same outfit five times before moving on to something slightly different.
