Balenciaga

Pioneer of the cocoon coat, balloon skirt, and high-low hem, Cristóbal Balenciaga’s eponymous house was founded in Paris in 1919. Today, under the direction of Demna Gvasalia, the label integrates subversive and experimental designs with iconic house codes. Passionately followed by fashion insiders, Balenciaga continues to introduce new architectural shapes, custom fabrics, and luxe leather accessories. Founder: Cristóbal Balenciaga, Owned by: Kering
