Beautiful Balenciaga

Today I went to the Balenciaga exhibit at the Queen Sofia Spanish Institute. I had never looked into Balenciaga very much in the past, but today's exhibit was amazing! He was truly a master of construction, fit and drape. My friends and I stood puzzling and guessing over the construction of each piece and marveling at the detail and how he used his culture as inspiration for each lovely piece. If you are in the area it is worth checking out, the exhibit will also be going to the De Young Museum in San Francisco.

                                               Some of the pieces from the exhibit.

                                                    A few other favorite looks.
