When I heard that Jennifer Connelly was on 'Live With Regis & Kelly' , I was extremely ecstatic. So much so, I was glued to my T.V. waiting for her appearance. Mainly because I knew that the actress would wear Balenciaga . When she wasn't wearing the brand on the show, I sadly continued watching the interview. Little did I know that Jennifer would fulfill my dreams. At the New York Premiere of "The Day The Earth Stood Still" , Jennifer stepped onto the red carpet in a Balenciaga Spring 2009 dress. I was so filled with joy, that I decided to post this ... Read Full Story

According to Style.com 's Sarah Mower, Nicolas Ghesquière commented during his Balenciaga show in Paris yesterday that one of the models looked like a solar panel. And that was the point. Well, not to create clothes that resemble alternative sources of heating, but rather to explore "matte and shine, playing with textures to see how they reflect or absorb light." Ghesquière has the fashion editors falling at his feet thanks to his genius with fabrics and his ability to implement new technology into couture techniques. So expect that Balenciaga will be a name that's not going to fade away any time soon. Not as ... Read Full Story

I first read the wo rds Nicolas Ghesquière about eight years ago. The context in which my eyes skimmed that name is quite…unique. I loved reading Internet soap operas at the time. There happened to be web drama title “A Lovely Light,” which took place in bitchy Hollywood, with actors who were up-and-coming and socialites who were fighting the aging process. In any case, the author of this web drama (I forget her name) named dropped various designers, and the name Nicolas Ghesquière was one of those. Maybe it was the fancy accent mark over the “e” in Ghesquière that stuck out to me, ... Read Full Story

Two years ago, Bal enciaga ushered in the wave of floral dresses with bulbous skirts and cinched waists. Ever the trend-setter, Nicolas Ghesquière has quite likely done it again. If what he created for Balenciaga’s Spring/Summer 2010 show is any indication, a harder, tougher aesthetic is what we can expect to see on the racks of high-end department stores and smaller, mall stores. Next year promises to be full of sleek leather and black fabric, a marked contrast from the florals and soft palettes typical of Spring/Summer looks past. However, to serve as a contrast to the leather jodhpurs and tough hoodies, Ghesquière punched ... Read Full Story

When the great Cristobal Balenciaga closed the doors of his couture house in 1968 he lamented, “There is no one left worth dressing.” For decades the house lay dormant until 26-year-old Frenchman Nicolas Ghesquiere was appointed creative director of Balenciaga in 1997 after the departure of Josephus Thimister. Since 1995, Ghesquiere had quietly freelanced for Balenciaga’s licences. Three years later, Ghesquiere won the Vogue/VHl Avant Garde Designer of the Year Award, followed by the CFDA womenswear Designer of the Year title in 2001. Suzy Menkes of The ... Read Full Story

I got the Fall 2007 Balenciaga Men’s lookbook at the Meatpacking district store in NYC. I was there for fashion week and was checking out the stores in the area. I prefer the Fall 2007 collection. It’s very preppy, which was keeping with the Balenciaga Fall 2007 woman minus the lego shoes. The Continue reading Balenciaga Menswear Lookbooks Fall 2007 and 2009
