Founded by the Spanish fashion designer Cristóbal Balenciaga over a century ago, Balenciaga was originally known for its sculptural, impeccably-constructed couture. After its revival by Nicolas Ghesquière in the 1990s, the label is now revered as one of luxury fashion’s most progressive, agenda-setting labels, notorious for its ability to create instant cult classics. Its current creative director, Vetements founder Demna Gvasalia, has brought a streetwear-inspired, disruptive energy to the house.
“My early memories of fashion start with me drawing looks on cardboard, cutting them out and making ‘fashion shows’ on my kitchen table,” the designer explained.
