Flicking throughthe latest Vogue (hypocrite?) I stumbled across the ad campaign for Balenciaga Autumn/Winter 10/11 and instantly fell in love. The use of what look like decorative box pleats to create a visual explosion of texture andskill is tantalising to he eye. Taking a closer look at these dresses seems to suggest that the texture is given by tiny diamond pillows, quilted onto the backing fabric which again, is mesmerising to look at. The fabric also demonstrates different types of typography to give the dresses added dimension. It's not surprising that these dresses were the finale to a truly technical and beautiful show by Nicolas Ghesquiere for Balenciaga.
