first impression: it wasn't as
tear inducing as spring summer 2011, however it didn't exactly set the world on fire. and i say that as a fan who buys their pieces seasons in and out, and i say that with a tinge of sadness. balenciaga womenswear is up there, right at the forefront, something is lacking in the menswear division. and i hate to tear apart what someone did as i appreciate the amount of stress and work involved to put together a collection. just that as a long time fan, waiting every six months only to be slightly let down, is a little disheartening.
second look: i am looking past the styling and questionable choice of models. i am keen on the red suede jacket on top right, light brown hooded jacket (2nd row left), and the coats on 3rd row centre and right.
final thoughts: give me some time and i think i will warm to the pieces. this fan will be heading in stores come july 2011.
