BALENCIAGA

Balenciaga, founded in 1919 by Cristóbal Balenciaga, has long been a symbol of innovation in fashion. Revered for his sculptural approach to couture, Balenciaga was hailed by Dior as “the master of us all.” After its closure in 1968, the house was reborn under Nicolas Ghesquière and later Demna, each pushing its heritage in new directions. From futuristic tailoring to a radical vision of street-infused luxury that continues to shape contemporary culture.
