Dude he was a disgusting, disturbed cultist. In fact he would be proud of their evil deeds. Ba len ci aga = do what you want (which literally mean "do what thou wilt")
@@princesspig5091 what do you mean don’t be silly , do your research on large companies that have been around since the 1800s . Open your eyes and mind to the way the elite work . The music, movie and arty people have been into this sort of nonsense for ever .
@@princesspig5091 if you search on UA-cam for large companies connected with freemasonry and large families that are still running the world to this day like the Rothschilds , black rock , vanguard, rockafellars and many more , even a famous company like Hugo Boss supplied the German army with uniforms during the war .
Cristóbal Balenciaga was “the master of us all”, in the words of another fashion icon of the era, Christian Dior. Also Coco Chanel, not very given to making friends and free praises, said he was the only authentic couturier. Unlike his contemporaries, he was able to design, cut, assemble and sew a dress from beginning to end. In his own words: “A good couturier should be: an architect for patterns, sculptor for form, painter for drawings, musician for harmony, and philosopher for measure.” summarize perfectly his vision of the trade.
The lovely way you worded your comment made me question if there is anyone like him ... he is the one and only that inspired the world! I can tell you have a great love and deep respect for his talent /s (which are many) I believe that there are many people out there today, capable of doing all that you mentioned “from start to finish “ but sadly, it’s a very competitive industry and very hard to break into it, it’s sad because these days to get a start in it you have to know the right people or you may never get your feet over the door! I know this happens in a lot of industries like this)especially in the arts) but in my opinion there are many , many talented people capable to do the work (every step) but never get noticed in the way they should because of the snobbery in the industry.
@@ACD-ti4ph I say the same thing to ppl. The world is actually far less violent than it was in the past. Difference now is we get info literally at lightspeed bc of how connected we all are via internet.

There’s also the fact that these fashion houses change owners and creative designers all the time, and reinforce elitist hierarchies in fashion, worn by conspicuous consumer who don’t give a shit about style and just pay for the brand name. Not sure if that’s what you want to work towards.

@@Toxus8 It’s unfortunate to see a comment like this because I was just respecting that a man had worked and given his life to his name and it wasn’t through his work that it became what it should’ve been. having worked in the space selling luxury designer items I know that it’s not about the wealth of the person who is buying the item, it’s often about it being the in thing as to why they want it they don’t even care about the quality or about the sustainability they just care that other people know it’s expensive.
"People will wear just about any logo if you tell them it’s a high end." The most important sentence in this whole video. He played on people’s stupidity and vanity, but for some not in that order.
I agree. Fascinating. I was uld encourage the narrator created to uptick his inflection and tone, he unintentionally comes across as bored by fashion as the accent of most words weighs heavily on a down tone, the antithesis of the Canadian up. Somewhere in the middle and I'd binge listen all day.
@@therealmvpee no lol. Michael Kors, Marc Jacob, Vivienne Westwood, John Galliano, Jean Paul Gaultier, Versace and Dolce & Gabbana were all founded less than 50 years. There’s loads that are not that old in comparison.
Christobal Balenciaga would have been devastated to have seen what became of his name. "I will not prostitute my Art", he said, when he was asked to design Prêt-À-Porter. Well, what I can see is that they prostituted it for him.
Not for nothing if Christobal was alive he’d probably be mortified by what’s happened to his house. I know brands have to modernize to stay relevant for the times, but it reminds me of Dior and Saint Laurent who both were alive when new creative directors took over and they hated their designs. I personally think Ghesquiere’s Balenciaga was the best. I still sigh every time I think about those collections. This newest couture collection was amazing and modern I loved the models and the inclusion of mens wear
I'm pretty sure 99% of normal people think it's horrible and that the brand is dead. It's sad, but tons of brands get ruined eventually. Just not this epically.
@@jenynz5334 Yeah but he was congratulating their more aggressive approach, their more edgy stance and shows. So it would be interesting to hear from the people that were cheering for more, whats their take. Normal people think the whole fashion scene is weird if we are honest, that a bag is not fashion. So we take it for granted that they would think its horrible, but what about the people who say "I understand most dont get it but their new edgy work was their best yet and it propelled...." etc what do they have to say?
@@geroutathat I think people tend to overlook the overt symbolism and messaging presented in art. It can so easily be passed off as “avant garde” or exploratorily controversial that we absolve the artist of having any role in the conveyance of said messaging , and seem to “forget” that all art is made with a distinct purpose and intent, regardless of how others perceive it. We also greatly underestimate the power of art and symbolism … it may seem harmless , but imagine being in a room surrounded with dark and disturbing imagery… how does it make you feel? What does it make you think about? Already these images are affecting your mental state, your emotional state, and thought processes… what I’m saying is that all these impressions and images stay with us and have a direct affect on us. We should ask ourselves more when it comes to art. How does this make me feel? What are they trying to say? What does this imagery represent?
Hes spanish, they only raised the age of consent from 13 to 16 in 2015? Lets not pretend he came from a country that tries to protect children, countries that brought in age of consent of 16/17 decades before, and never had a normal culture of children as young as 12 being married off. I mean did you know that today in Hungary the age of consent is 14? and if youre 18 you can be with children as young as 12 legally? These are the type of cultures and rich he pandered to, its like romeo and juliet.. shakespeare wanted to write them as 13 but chose 14. The average age of marriage in UK/Ireland at the time was 18-20. They had no culture of marrying young or young consent, in fact the opposite. He chose this age as it was how rich people lived, to show the crowd a glimpse inside rich life of the people who were coming over to marry their kings and queens. People would have left thinking "what stupid children, really rich people have no problems in life at all and live on a different planet to us". The planet he lived on.
@@hansdampf640 Yep, most countries. Like hungary still lets 18 year olds have sex with 12 year olds, I should not blame them for that? I should give them a free pass? France hides child rapists from America, I should give them a free pass. This is how you work? just give them a free pass because holding yourself accounatable too is too much work?
@@geroutathat wooow...easy maverick... i always had a very loud and clear stand against child abuse... tell me,when do a girl become a women in terms of nature? our moral construct is impoartant,no doubt. You can´t ignore our history and nature,channel your anger my friend. in the past it was perfectly normal to have a child at the age of 12-15 since people rarely reached the age of 40,but they had functional families and they raised the childs together. things have changed since then and our moral against a 13year old having a child is based on the destruction of the familiy-structure. wich means: "you can only have a baby if you can handle it on your own" don´t get confused and focus on the real problem please
The sock shoes always made me crack up because cosplayers had been making them for years because they are cheap and easy to customize in any color or length. It was kind of mind blowing to wake up one day and seeing celebrities wearing them
Yes, that was a very old style. My grandmother who was born in 1917 used to wear socks in heels, when she was a young lady. That was the style then!!! Fashions tend to come back in style, differently however still, it's customary...
Yeah and they usually look cheap 😂 I’ve always hated those effing balenciaga sock shoes, it made me SICK when the stupid cardi b song came out and everyone was all about it like 👀 something is really wrong w y’all. Literally ppl know NOTHING about these brands they wear except “cardi b, Kim K, yeezy!” And the clothes generally look like trash. Most of balenciaga new line was trash, that gift shop garbage was trash… all these brands have to do is print a logo on something and have someone famous talk about it and it sells.
The Brand Took a dive…it’s went from a High End Brand to a Social experiment Joke.. Selling out to a Big Parent Company Kering Nephew Fumbled the legacy RIP THE KING Balenciaga
@@iankearns774 No to both!! When it comes to protecting children, we can't leave the door open a crack to let ANY of this child grooming and pedophilia in!!!!
PHENOMENAL video! Would love to see you cover more fashion houses like this with deep roots and rich histories. Makes it very easy to digest the different stages and designers that have passed through these brands, and your clearly in depth level of research makes this enjoyable even for people who already know a good amount. Keep going man, the videos you make are some of my favourites.
I just like how Balenciaga went full Derelicte like zoolander with the latest collection, almost as if signalling the end of the brand just like Mugatu's
Really stepped it up with this one mate! Echoing what others have said - would love to see more on other of the older fashion houses. Linking it all up to today was wonderful and am so keen to see what you do next.
So I came across this video randomly while looking something else up about Balenciaga. I have no experience in high fashion other than some names I've heard before. I didn't think I'd be interested but damn if I didn't watch the whole thing. Fascinating stuff! But also open enough for those of us not in the know to follow! I really appreciate it!
So glad I found this channel!! This is a fascinating in depth look at the history of Balenciaga. I hope you're able to make similar videos about other brands in the future!
also glad that u moving that ''slowly but surely'' this what I/most of us need, special uploads only, even if I need to wait 2 months for another.. keep it
I LOOVVE the clear traditional spanish inspiration in Balenciaga's work and do wish it had a bit of a comeback. Blending the old with the new is jsut about my favorite thing ever. Thought I also love Gvasalia and the Bernie logo. That is when I really saw Balenciaga for the first time and thought it was hilarious
I think the DHL concept is respectable for the concept that people will wear any logo if it’s perceived as “high-end” but at the same time, that’s what discredits the design in my opinion. Since we know people will wear things if they’re luxury, but if your gonna design luxury, then make it original & authentic rather than a logo rip placed onto higher quality materials
Josephus Thimister, who committed suicide just a couple of years ago, deserves to be more than just a throwaway footnote imo. Interesting, underrated designer who accomplished a lot.
This was awesome! I always wondered about this brands history as they really were not always that big when I was growing up. Now they are huge AGAIN so it was nice to see where they came from. I also would bet that Alexander W. was removed due to the countless allegations of S.A that have come to light.
Maybe the devil has always been there but they’re just more open now, disclosing who they really are normalizing ssatanist. Look around, Satan practice is everywhere in mainstream
14:45 "I'm sure many of you are familiar with Nicolas..." as someone who just randomly stumbled upon this video I felt like I had just walked into the wrong classroom lmao. Like oh man, I skipped some prerequisites here. Great video narrating and formatting, was super enjoyable to follow!
Can you please do a video on Craig Green I feel like he’s such an amazing designer I’d love to learn his back story in your style because it’s amazing lol good work
He was a Master of good taste and craftsmanship. I'd like to know what he would say now if he saw his House making clothes that look like they've been worn by homeless and tramps
Well Cristobal was the only couturier in his time he was able to design and produce his work. The last dress he created was a wedding gown for a Spanish princess he designed it and stitched it himself and retired for good because no one cared about craftsmanship and quality fashion and eventually died of grief. Now Demna (who’s given 14 minutes of this video when the king of haute couture himself got only 8) dissed all the history and the vision of the brand’s founder and used this position to bring out his brand and the mess he created. Worst of all when he said that his goal is to ruin fashion. I seriously cant wait for him to leave this brand alone and go back to his own brand and create the mess he wishes for his own fans and leave Balenciaga and its original clientele in peace.
I’m curious about this goal of demnas to “ruin fashion” … he certainly seems to be ruining something …. Although I’m a little confused about how anyone can ruin something as a concept. I mean fashion just is, everyone takes part in “fashion” whether they’re aware of it or not.
@@Mojojojo85757 he thought elegant fashion is cheesy and his aim was to cancel the elegant and chic fashion and promote streetwear ugly shoes casual and sportswear and hoodies for luxury fashion. Thats fine a designer can always bring out his vision but Balenciaga’s vision was anything but that
This was very informative even though I thought to myself if people weren't so programmed to believe because they see celebrities wearing these brands no way they would be paying as much for it.
Back in the mid 60’s, I purchased a beautiful blue Balenciaga suit. I am curious 🧐, wasn’t he famous for using a certain shade of blue for a while in his designs? Found it in a second-hand store.
Balenciaga is way to main stream and try’s to be too streetwear nowadays loved seeing how it started out as a very high class brand I personally like that balenciaga better
28:43 "A NEW AGE" That most recent, elegant Demna Balenciaga collection demonstrates clearly just how fascinating fashion history is, or often can be. It indeed epitomizes the spirit of the original Balenciaga.
In a sense, he was the last great couturier. As far as I know, at the time of his retirement, he was the only well known Designer who did not have a ready to wear line and exclusively worked made to measure. I may be wrong but I don't think there has been a house soley focused on haute couture in the truest sense of the word (made to measure, handmade in Paris) since.
THIRD TIME WATCHING THIS VIDEO.. ALL YOUR VIDEOS ARE WELL EDITED, WELL EDUCATED, EXPLAINED & ALWAYS SUCH GREAT CONTENT!!! PLZ DONT STOP.. I'D LOVE TO SEE A VIDEO ON YSL, DIOR, OR GUCCI
That was Beautiful Loved it! Took Me backto My Late Grammer School and My Early High School Days. I used to sketch original designs and do photography and even did still modeling. Loved those days put it all aside for singing and songwriting My actual Majors but never lost the passion for it all. Miss My Mami teaching Me to sew certain items too. Love in Full circle. ❤ 😍

workin on it
I am sure Cristobal Balenciaga is turning over in his grave.
Anyone else blown away by how the models are all walking in that old video? hunched over with short steps
My great grandfather (civil engineer) was his pattern maker as well as for some other designers of the time.
Cristobal Balenciaga would be so proud of his brand, from LOTR, Harry Potter to Avengers all people want to wear Balenciaga products.

So glad I found this channel!! This is a fascinating in depth look at the history of Balenciaga. I hope you're able to make similar videos about other brands in the future!
also glad that u moving that ''slowly but surely'' this what I/most of us need,
special uploads only, even if I need to wait 2 months for another.. keep it
I’m definitely speechless but I loved every minute of this video and I’ll be sharing to all of my friends
you're the best thank you!
I LOOVVE the clear traditional spanish inspiration in Balenciaga's work and do wish it had a bit of a comeback. Blending the old with the new is jsut about my favorite thing ever. Thought I also love Gvasalia and the Bernie logo. That is when I really saw Balenciaga for the first time and thought it was hilarious
I think the DHL concept is respectable for the concept that people will wear any logo if it’s perceived as “high-end” but at the same time, that’s what discredits the design in my opinion. Since we know people will wear things if they’re luxury, but if your gonna design luxury, then make it original & authentic rather than a logo rip placed onto higher quality materials
Josephus Thimister, who committed suicide just a couple of years ago, deserves to be more than just a throwaway footnote imo. Interesting, underrated designer who accomplished a lot.
Damn. I read this right after that part. I’m sure that really affected him. Rip
When you take time out to make a documentary tag me and I’ll watch so I can learn more about him
@@joyaustin6581 ...huh?
This was awesome! I always wondered about this brands history as they really were not always that big when I was growing up. Now they are huge AGAIN so it was nice to see where they came from. I also would bet that Alexander W. was removed due to the countless allegations of S.A that have come to light.
I think it’s wrong to mess with the legacy of the creator. He wanted the house to be closed, that should be respected.
Imagine how he would feel today? Ye is smarter than people think he is. He did a 'Get Out'! 🥴
The history of balenciaga just went dark, their future is, well, they have none
Love!!! An episode on just gvasalia please, he has really become an imprint in the brand's identity
Interesting history. It’s a shame to see his name tarnished by current events.
Maybe the devil has always been there but they’re just more open now, disclosing who they really are normalizing ssatanist. Look around, Satan practice is everywhere in mainstream
honey wake up threaducation just uploaded
😂
This documentary is hard af.
14:45 "I'm sure many of you are familiar with Nicolas..." as someone who just randomly stumbled upon this video I felt like I had just walked into the wrong classroom lmao. Like oh man, I skipped some prerequisites here. Great video narrating and formatting, was super enjoyable to follow!
He's always thinking of new ways to surprise us. Oh is that what they call it? lol!
Just discovered this yt channel and I’ve been bing watching each video. Plssss don’t stop
This video was incredible, I’ll now be binge watching your channel for the rest if the day… 🙌🏼
😁
Can you please do a video on Craig Green I feel like he’s such an amazing designer I’d love to learn his back story in your style because it’s amazing lol good work
yes soon Craig is so dope
Still waiting for Kanye and demna collab
Hey now lets talk about this after the ad👀
He was a Master of good taste and craftsmanship. I'd like to know what he would say now if he saw his House making clothes that look like they've been worn by homeless and tramps
Well Cristobal was the only couturier in his time he was able to design and produce his work. The last dress he created was a wedding gown for a Spanish princess he designed it and stitched it himself and retired for good because no one cared about craftsmanship and quality fashion and eventually died of grief. Now Demna (who’s given 14 minutes of this video when the king of haute couture himself got only 8) dissed all the history and the vision of the brand’s founder and used this position to bring out his brand and the mess he created. Worst of all when he said that his goal is to ruin fashion. I seriously cant wait for him to leave this brand alone and go back to his own brand and create the mess he wishes for his own fans and leave Balenciaga and its original clientele in peace.
I’m curious about this goal of demnas to “ruin fashion” … he certainly seems to be ruining something …. Although I’m a little confused about how anyone can ruin something as a concept. I mean fashion just is, everyone takes part in “fashion” whether they’re aware of it or not.
@@Mojojojo85757 he thought elegant fashion is cheesy and his aim was to cancel the elegant and chic fashion and promote streetwear ugly shoes casual and sportswear and hoodies for luxury fashion. Thats fine a designer can always bring out his vision but Balenciaga’s vision was anything but that
@@lilMissF0F0 Balenciaga had to adapt to streetwear to survive Demna basically renowned the brand.
The history of drip.. Thank you for this one you really showed evolution of fashion today in 30 minutes. liked subscribed
You deserve a Netflix show! Your researching skills are soooo sick
This was very informative even though I thought to myself if people weren't so programmed to believe because they see celebrities wearing these brands no way they would be paying as much for it.
I mean the items are very high quality. A Prada wallet will last you your entire life. A Target wallet will not.
Just found your channel and I’m obsessed
Back in the mid 60’s, I purchased a beautiful blue Balenciaga suit. I am curious 🧐, wasn’t he famous for using a certain shade of blue for a while in his designs? Found it in a second-hand store.
Great essay. Thoroughly enjoyed.
this was so informative and entertaining. loved it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Came here because of the harry potter balenciaga videos.
Bruh! Bravo on this vid 👏🏾👏🏾 You did an amazing job and looking forward to more
Imagine my surprise when I realise how deep I've fallen down the rabbit hole from a meme.
You're Balenciaga, Harry.
Can’t imagine what cristobal would think of the fortnite collab 😭
"As long as Demna is in charge, I'd say that they're in very good hands." Not so much anymore.
Talk about ‘dumbing down’ fashion….no ‘dumbing down’ style. The new iteration of such a stylish house is appalling!
The history of Balenciaga. That's very very interesting!!!
the history of type videos are the best, love the content!
Knew I missed a vid, 3am here in Trinidad and I’m studying, time to take a break for some threaducation
Balenciaga is way to main stream and try’s to be too streetwear nowadays loved seeing how it started out as a very high class brand I personally like that balenciaga better
explains a lot why I have a feeling the brand is not anything close to Balenciaga designer himself
28:43 "A NEW AGE" That most recent, elegant Demna Balenciaga collection demonstrates clearly just how fascinating fashion history is, or often can be. It indeed epitomizes the spirit of the original Balenciaga.
Who else is here after watching the sick stuff they're doing?
Was wait for this one 🙏🏾🫂
Liked before it even finished loading
thank you gang
LMAO. This video is gonna need an update
Thanks very much for the video! Enjoyed it whole
i think yeezy (or yzy) deserves its own video aside from an overall kanye vid tbh. mandem went crazy with the colour palettes
thats ghetto
there should’ve been more coverage on nicolas and cristobals designs, just felt like more of a demna at balenciaga video.
In a sense, he was the last great couturier. As far as I know, at the time of his retirement, he was the only well known Designer who did not have a ready to wear line and exclusively worked made to measure. I may be wrong but I don't think there has been a house soley focused on haute couture in the truest sense of the word (made to measure, handmade in Paris) since.
THIRD TIME WATCHING THIS VIDEO.. ALL YOUR VIDEOS ARE WELL EDITED, WELL EDUCATED, EXPLAINED & ALWAYS SUCH GREAT CONTENT!!! PLZ DONT STOP.. I'D LOVE TO SEE A VIDEO ON YSL, DIOR, OR GUCCI
That was Beautiful Loved it! Took Me backto My Late Grammer School and My Early High School Days. I used to sketch original designs and do photography and even did still modeling. Loved those days put it all aside for singing and songwriting My actual Majors but never lost the passion for it all. Miss My Mami teaching Me to sew certain items too. Love in Full circle. ❤ 😍
You can always pick up where you left off. There is no expiration date for great Art, or good work.
This video was needed I’ve been a fan of Balenciaga since demna became creative director and it’s crazy how fast the brand is blowing up now
Balenciaga’s always been big, it’s not new, only new to those who don’t know the major fashion houses that have always influenced fashion
CP is SO hot right now!
Yoooo Adam22 was talking about your videos on his podcast! Been a sub since 10k keep it up!
This is an amazing piece... Thanks for all the information. This has definitely put me into the fashion world.
🙏
