Balenciaga Exhibit

I visited the Balenciaga Exhibit at the Queen Sophia Spanish Institute. It was quite a site to see all the creative pieces that this master of couture created during his career. They just don't make clothes like this anymore.

The detail and misleadingly simple construction was awe inspiring. I was able to take some pictures to share with all of you. If you have the chance make sure you stop by to see the exhibit which lasts until February 19th.




This was the book that they had for sale at the exhibit with some beautiful photos. Had to purchase this for my collection
