Nicolas Ghesquière described Balenciaga this season as the "most sensual collection I've ever done,", which was clearly evident in the skin-baring tops and slitting long skirts. Always the modernist, Ghesquière merged movement with rigidity; with soft shapes came almost entirely stiff fabrics— in fact, t-shirts were dipped in glue. The brand's tradition fashions were re-worked into a fresh concept, bringing sensuality back to the present-day Balenciaga girl.
