Balenciaga S/S 2014 Paris

Is this Nicolas Ghesquière by Alexander Wang :rolleyes:
 
I see previous Nicolas, Givenchy by Tisci, Dior and Jil by Raf... not too good
 
these pictures are awful, i can barely see a thing
 
Definite NG vibes. I guess he's just picking from the archives. I feel kinda bad for the guy, actually. Chances are, after the NG thing, they're just telling him what to design & hoping that Balenciaga can be like Chanel where people will still buy the clothes based on the name despite the questionable pieces on the runway.
 
It's sort of difficult to judge this based on the pictures, but I do love that opening look.
 
All the white & mesh pieces are irrelevant. The floral pants are hideous. His not referencing Balenciaga, his referencing Nicolas. At least Raf references Dior and not Galliano...

His first collection for the house was stronger and consistent.

I'm waiting for better pictures, but so far so good. Of course he is referencing Nicholas's work a lot, but when the result is so well done I really cannot complain.
 
Err, I think these will sell really well. I dont think Balenciaga would be complaining.
 
It reminds of Raf Simons more than Nicolas. It's still very modern, elegant and as people had predicted miles away from his namesake label.

Yes, I can definitely see some Raf Simons in and there, especially in the dresses of post #17.
