Also, does anybody else think that entitling the collection 'Skinny Line' sounds incredibly pretentious? By now we know Hedi won't be trying his hand on anything oversize in terms of silhouette, let alone the cut of his jeans...

Props to Nicolas for admitting this, it's true Balenciaga was out of control with their cuts, certain items didn't allow movement (no matter how skinny the waist/torso) I'm so not surprised they used females for fits but what a goof

I always found that Hedi was somewhat of a master in tailoring because he somehow figured out how to keep his slim clothing comfortable on a man. as for the skinny line i agree the name/concept is kind of ridiculous but i guess it makes sense... as for the denim, the raw selvage will be a straight cut 19cm, the slim & skinny will be 17.5 & 16cm (!!!) with 2% stretch..
