Balenciaga - Paris Fashion Week Spring 2008

Comments | | Print

(PARIS) Entering the Balenciaga show space was like walking on roses, as the carpet was entirely flowered, giving the attendees their first glimpse of what they could expect for the show. While classical music boomed overhead, short-shorts with huge puffed sleeves walked down the runway. Shoulders were oversized on futuristic tops while skirt lengths were mainly mini. And roses abounded, seen on almost every piece in the beginning, while the last few paired shirts and pants were sleek and shiny, form-fitting, and tailored to the body. Another bonus? Natalia Vodianova's unmistakable runway strut, less than three weeks after delivering her third child.
