Summary
About us
Cristbal Balenciaga founded the House in 1917 in his home of Spain. In 1937 he established the brand in Paris designing its collections there until 1968. Cristbal Balenciaga had a reputation as a couturier of uncompromising standards and was referred to as the master of us all by Christian Dior and as The Couturier of the Couturiers by Gabrielle Chanel. The ultramodern shapes were trademarks of the house.
While the brands identity is firmly rooted in its highly conceptual prtporter collections its leather goods footwear and accessories experience worldwide success as well. Among the archetypal products of the House are its handbag collections. A new focus on the development of Balenciaga readytowear collections for men was quickly established as highly successful.
Since October 2015 Demna has designed both mens and womens collections as the artistic director.
The Balenciaga House part of the Kering group since 2001 is one of the most influential names in fashion.
