Balenciaga Catwalk Fashion Show Paris 2019
And Demna Gvasalia did it again. To an all black backdrop and black runway he delivered yet another (XL, 109 looks) collection filled with statement making, trend setting Balenciaga looks. A series of suits first (the guys wore them with floor sweeping hoodies underneath). For the girls there were short, shiny and tiny party dresses. There were statement trench coats with high collars (one in patent red). Boxy overcoats, blazers and suit jackets (in some of them the models appeared to have no neck). A lot of the pieces looked fit for both boys and girls. The branded shoulder bags looked as if they would sell out like hot cakes. As did those B-pendant necklaces. The logomania remained absent in the rest of the collection. Pops of yellow, turquoise, blue and pink worked beautifully. A turquoise dress with high collar stood out. As well as a shiny pink overcoat (with the cosines of a sleeping bag). A few plaid looks in the mix, as well as some velvet kimono like suits. We can already see our favorite IG girls working these looks (or the high street references to it) the upcoming period.
