Balenciaga: Fall 2008

[koisa0803]

Balenciaga new york store has the worst, most unprofessional customer service ever!

[MANILABOY6631]

MONSTER !!!

[laluzdelamanana]

Ahhh! Amanda Laine, she is my top model!

[bridgeviewproduction]

the models look creepy

[screwz69]

Balanciaga is the Best and Nicolas Guesquiere is truly amazing!!! wow..I Wish I would only get the opportunity to be his protege..

[SpanishAmerican]

Cristobal Balenciaga was from Spain.

[nicho52]

the collection is aggressive but refreshing

[Kenudigme]

nicolas is a pure fuckin genius....!!!! there's nobody fuckin with him. - he keeps coming with the heat.

[bachuskz]

he was inspired by a the simone signoret look in a dark french film called "le corbeau" by clouzot

[quarkent]

very thierry mugler!

[febeilina]

yeah, thierry is the inspiration of many actual fashion designers

[Maser50007]

True, especially from Dolce & Gabbana.

[MANILABOY6631]

Yes, but of the inferior kind !

[xXMegan1111Xx]

ya very innovative

[lovelyciel]

I love you Nicolas Ghesquierre! You are a genius!

[lawinkaKB]

[lovekatemoss]

poidi luchshe sosi u svoei prostitutki materi:)

[starsparks111]

i love balenciaga but not this collection. FW06 was my favorite and SS07 too.

comparing this to Viktor & Rolf, this is one i liked better though.

[ilovepicasso]

Nicolas Ghesquiere is pure talent

[will1234321]

Joe and Will Ask? - MONSTER has just come out and can be bought from 'beatport' or next week on itunes etc

Balenciaga Fall 2008 Playlist

Hot Chip - Out at the Pastures

Joe And Will Ask? - Monster

Kanye West - Flashing Lights (DJ Sanchez Light Honey Mix)

DJ: Michel Gaubert

I have the soundtrack avalable; message me if you'd like it.

[diego40100]

i have a track from a balenciaga show lyrics say something like "I machine" or something like that, any idea who this may be?

[diego40100]

never mind, i found it is "rapair machine" by vitalic, wasnt so easy to find cos is an old show

[dude2755]

could i have the sound track to Balenciaga: Fall 2008

[a11waves]

Can I have a copy of the soundtrack really love it.

A

[elbuenyi]

love the new dimensions and proportions that N ghesquiere gives to their clothes

[jmgjr83]

I love it. Some of the models look too wide in those coats. It's the coats, not them. Also, some remind me of this seasons miu miu.

[brocadeblu]

a little dissapointing,

although loved the painted latex coats.Hoy!

it was almost like the best of Ghesquire , the darted panel black and white tight pants felt like they belonged in the ethnic winter show he did.

He could do dresses with print of toilets on them and all the editors will still grovel!

He will be a great, although he already is he just needs to die, and then he will be remembered as one of the greatest!

[rainy1sun]

full show anyone?

[SartiMatteo]

Unfortunaly, the shoes are awful.

[andrewjamesmacleod]

The shoes are fabulous. I love the sharpness of the piecing, the contrast between soft colours and the bright silver leather, and the boots & shoe boots toward the end are fantastic. I don't know what the material is, but it's amazing. In detail photos, the material has the appearance of alabaster. It's slightly transparent and resembles light through alabaster. I love the dichotomy between natural and synthetic in this collection.

[dorkpanda]

tankiu!!! i love it!

[dorkpanda]

Someone knows the song in 1:16?

[Mana]

monster by Joe and Will Ask

[andrewjamesmacleod]

You can see the influence of Mugler in the procession of black dresses. I think the inspiration must have come from Mugler's spring 1998 couture collection. However, I think Ghesquiere has taken the inspiration and really perfected it, and dare I say even better than Mugler himself.

[seatally]

this seasons collection was so amazing.

this is not crap.

or bad.

balenciaga is the defintion of high fashion.

my favorite.

i like his spring collection also.

[dandan88se]

so y didnt they let kanye into their show? i'd love to know, amaazing clothes

[jimmyjk08]

dont blame them. i dont knoW why, but i cannot stand him!

[xian1586]

bad body shape , not flattering for normal women , seen befero............versace collection's way better

[yosafat231088]

Balenciaga is in a whole different level than Versace. They're not even targeting the same type of women. Comparing Versace and Balenciaga is like comparing Sponge Bob to Superman.

And the weird thing is, if you mention that you've seen these things before, because it was Versace who keeps playing with the same things over and over again.

[MarieAntoinette2]

Loved all these clothes. They're so modern and fresh. Beautiful shoes, lots of black and white, gunmetal gray. One of the best Balenciaga collections I've seen for awhile. All those angles. LOVE IT ALL!!!!

[marinkrist]

very cool

[kristaannashley]

can you believe that ali michael was turned away from this show because she gained 5 pounds! she is so beautiful

[undftd87]

No way! I absolutely love her! That is messed up.

[kissthearsonist]

She is so fresh as well. But good for her for taking a stand for this whole thing.

[XYP39]

that s f ur female

this may b hard to digest, bt appreciate the innovation, and the inventiveness of Nicolas G. to get us out of the ubiquitous jeans&shirt

*fashion peace*

[samats5]

Balenciaga cannot be touched by any other fashion label. It is true to what it is and that is the key to their success. And Nicolas Ghesquiere is so absolutely talented that I can't put it into words. Love it!

[reneehui]

Balenciaga's always different from others.

This collection is 'VERY CRISTOBAL'.

[LovelyTragedy]

nicholas ghesquiere consistently amazes.

[bobatto82]

Does anybody has a full video about this fashion show????

[iva87]

the shoes are killer! I love them all

[hidetolove]

it's like going to the circus.. but.. scarier

[julien520]

balenciaga influenece has totally dominated the season,its all about sharpe and volume this season

[spike413]

This collection blew me away, and I don't think that's ever happened for me with a Balenciaga collection.

Sexy, sleek, chic, interesting...and my god, a designer finally doing something to accentuate the hips instead of hide them.

[CotardDelusion]

Wow. Powerful collection. Love how the whole collection progressed from the black dress and completely transformed piece by piece. So very scary, intriguing and stunning all at once.

[JJJustMMMe]

Uuuggghhh! Do we Americans really think this looks good? The woman looks terrible and the clothes? Yuck!!!! And so many ass kissers and they all have the same voice.

[xXInsomniac17Xx]

The reason they all have the same voice is because theyre all from Europe, where the people actually understand fashion. The real fashion comes designers like him who dont do the same thing like all these American designers. I am American and I loved it! this is what allll the other deisgners are going to copy! fashion is about looking different, and for you to judge this collection you should understand more about fashion. =]

[bobatto82]

Great!!!!!

You are 100% rigth!!!!!

[xWilhelm]

My goodness! U can not say it better.

He's a talented designer, and I must say, my favourite designer.

The last 3 seasons, his collection were amazing, really his style and always fresh ideas. I honestly can't believe how talented he is.

And yes, you are totally right, u must have a really developed sense of Fashion to judge this collection. n_n

[SartiMatteo]

America is the third world of fashion.

[yvesmartini]

totaly agree

[julien520]

the best show of the season!!!

[mercury399]

balenciaga dior and prada were among the best shows of the season - check out ms. poly at 0:23, struss at 0:28, rajzak 0:42 odele 0:52 (such a great new(?) face) tollerod 0:55 noorda 1:13 beha 1:16 donaldson 1:52 (one of the faces of the fall, and one of the most radiant) the sensational maddalena fracowiak 1:54 ms. kulikova (unmistakeable eyes) 2:13 pedaru 2:17 ali stephens 2:29 (baleful as ever)

[ryesq]

perfection. i worship balenciaga.

[nopeBREE]

i love Balenciaga so much but this season i think Nicolas Ghesquière played it a little too safe.

i like the outrageous, fantastic, crazy things much better. (robot legs)

but this is more wearable though :)

[rtMercury]

yea the women look like they actually hurt when they are walking....yikes...

[ericskiff]

I think some of these designs are amazing, but I can't help but be distracted by how painfully thin the models are. Is that what designers consider beautiful?

[nopeBREE]

in the fashion industry, yes
