How has Balenciaga changed?
1 Answer
Balenciaga is always changing, and the brand has over the years innovated haute couture as a whole while infusing its own designs with fresh, forward-looking spirit.
After founder Cristòbal Balenciaga retired in 1968, designers in the brand’s creative director role such as Nicolas Ghesquière and Alexander Wang have brought new and interesting ideas to the legendary house. Today Demna Gvasalia is Balenciaga's creative director.
