I saw the collection in stores. The pieces are all printed silk satin neoprene. If this collection was out now it would sell so well. It’s Instagram gold.
I saw two of the pieces: the short skirt and the s/s jacket @ Barneys NY. The skirt was selling for around 5,000 and the jacket 4,000. The shoes were 6,000!!!
ur exactly right - and ur point of choosing not to wear any of these pieces as it was styled/presented on the runway is correct. Some of these are separates and not as unidresses/uniforms. i also saw some pieces already in glossies. this is an ode to the femme form, but will take long to be fully appreciated
I love this collection so much - the mutation of couture shapes with modern fabric (for its day), the unity of vision and translating it into high fashion, I mean if I'm a collector I'd want any of these pieces - BUT I do understand why it didn't sell well too. I mean, I can see none of these clothes on people larger than size 2 at most. Also, it always jars me that not that long ago there could be a whole runway full of models but not one darker than light beige and there was no DISCOURSE whatsoever about it. Thank god for progress!
Despite being one of Spring/Summer 08's most expensive garments in the fashion industry, it is in the midst of selling out incredibly quickly nearly everywhere it's sold. It has also been hailed as one of the most tremendous successes of s/s 08 and was garnered infinite amounts of praise. You're better to phrase your criticism more carefully.
I'm not sure if we're talking about the same collections. I was refering to S/S 08 and the collection immediately before that (F/W 07/08). I think you're referring to F/W 06/07, which I agree was stunning.
The designs are very unique, and I think that anyone who wears a piece of Balenciaga's latest spring collection should also be labeled as unique. I do want to know the name of the last song, the techno-ish one? Please?!?
mrbeanbin, high fashion really is an extreme luxury. I actually know sons and daughters of wealthy individuals who easily spend $30,000 on a fur jacket on a casual stroll through west hollywood. Don't be discouraged, work hard and you'll find yourself closer than you think to your "dream".
Omigad @ that pink metallic jumper!!!! (And not in a good way). Collection started off interestingly enough, but soon become repetitive and one-note. I'm a Balenciaga nut, but the past two seasons (F/W 07 and this) have been disappointing. F/W 08 was a nice return to form.
The best Balenciaga collection under Nicholas Ghesquiere ever!

Mister Whitty every dress, skirt, short, jacket,top, boot, would sell out if this collection was current

A very unforgettable collection, although it sold badly in that year.
The pieces in the last techno part were my fave.

me encanta es fabulosa
there is no paint over this fabric. these are prints, probably silk screen or digital.

it's neoprene which is a foam fused with a jersey usually

Rhiana must have been watching this same show because I remember her rocking those same balenciaga shoes.
does anybody know who made this mix???
0:22 She looked like a child in that floral print 😭
what Fabric is that??
who else University of Hong Kong Student Union Council Session 2010
I don't know what kind of fabric it is, but I know there's paint over it.
bmw1085 neoprene and satin silk
I felt a bit "extravaganza" on Balenciaga Style of wearing and making clothes. But is catwalk...and you can put there what you want.
Allow itself.

The fabric was so stiff every girls looked like a robot
OMFG I THINK IM DEAF
LOL
I SMELL THIERRY MUGLER
This music ruined the collection
Horrible tasteless music, change it to the original that was mixed by Michel Gaubert!!!!!!!
Agree, the music was delightful, this is a terrible mix made to avoid copyright in a D&G show uploaded here on youtube by Dolce & Gabbana channel.
