Spanish fashion house Balenciaga is paying homage to the City of Love, and its Paris home, with a new set of items that feature the Eiffel Tower.

The Eiffel Tower, which has become synonymous with Paris, is featured throughout a range of long-sleeved tees, pullover hoodies, jackets and accessories. On the black tee, a colorful “Paris” motif is embellished across the front chest which wittily replaces the “A” with the Eiffel Tower. Over on the “i,” a heart replaces the dot. Elsewhere the black jacket sports contrasting white decals of Parisian monuments and the words “Paris,” “France” and “Balenciaga.” Finally the red hoodie is printed with a monogram mixing the Eiffel Tower and the house’s “BB” insignia.

The new items are available to purchase now via Balenciaga boutiques and balenciaga.com.

For more fashion news, Balenciaga and Harry Nuriev created a sofa from discarded clothing.
