NICOLAS GHESQUIERE swapped the showroom for the Hotel
Crillon this morning to present his spring/summer 2011 collection for the house
of Balenciaga. I really loved all the fresh and unique look that Ghesquiere has
about fashion and this collection proved that. He doesn’t follow trends or aesthetics,
he created them!
The Spring Summer 2011 collection has the designer’s
signature futurism with rockabilly sartorial sensibilities, and the show had
the fashion’s finest faces: Stella Tennant, Amber Valletta, Freja Beha Erichsen
and Gisele.
Fortunately we saw none of the whimsical gypsy dresses we’ve
been seeing so far for summer (even if I love bohemian style I was afraid there
will be nothing more!!!). Ghesquière had played with the idea of shimmer,
iridescence, reflection and refraction in amazing argyle-print sequin dresses
but what I loved to die were hoof-like and six-inch-high shoes that boasted
beaded fringing around the ankle and the bright fluoros combined with urban
black leather.
