On Saturday night in Paris he witnessed the debut of Pierpaolo Piccioli in one of the most mythical fashion marques, Balenciaga. With Meghan Markle and Lauren Sánchez applauding to the first row, this was surely the new most sophisticated designers so far.
A collection that was everything about the body and its relationship with clothes, with a beautiful light, often whispering, debut, from Pierpaolo Piccioli for the legendary house of Balenciaga on a wet night in the French capital.
Piccioli clearly considers the founder Cristóbal Balenciaga with amazement, as a great artist who revolutionized fashion and fabrics. Pre-Show, its Mood Pizarra presented images of the church Colline Dame Dame Dame Dame De Le Corbusier and “Vitruvian Man” of Da Vinci, which suggests the forms that PPP would develop.
A first collection presented within a perfect cruciform within an old convent, which should have pleased the founder Cristóbal Balenciaga, a regular assistant to Mass church on Sunday.
The key material in this insurrection was Gazar, a cloth technique that illuminates and adds structure to any aspect. Piccioli was well obsessed with really deepening the brand's DNA and its file. Therefore, it caused the house to inform Special Light Protection Body that live models could use within the historical aspect of the file without causing any damage.
“Unless you really see that Cristóbal's clothes move and turn on a living human body, I don't think he understands them completely,” Piccioli insisted.
The result was a rare elegance collection. Opening with columns, tunics and slightly undulating pants in Organza Gazar that destroyed while the models passed. But add a pinch of Rock Chic goddess with cocoon leather motorcyclists jackets, and an excellent combination of truncated leather leather and multiple skirt that came out.
Cristóbal was famous for using juxtaposed materials, something in which Pierpaolo played in ivory pods cut with small white cock feathers in slices.
Before the show, the couturier born in Rome explained that he wanted to add air to his curved shapes, either made in cotton and gazar wool, or leather of the second skin. He was very successful in the most subtle debut of the dozen so far in the four -week international calendar ends on Tuesday.
In addition, it combined a new soft bolero bag that one could fold and hold under the arm.
Pierpaolo joined Balenciaga, a key house in the French luxury group Kering, after a pause of 18 months after leaving Valentino. It happened to Demon, the designer born in Georgia who left to join Gucci, the biggest brand in Kering.
His visions for Balenciaga are very separate. Demon, a refugee civil war in his homeland, which had a dystopian dark vision of fashion and life.
One of Demon's most famous shows was established in a muddy battlefield with models dressed as battered refugees. Piccioli, on the contrary, loves bright and vibrant colors. His color palette referred to the glorious colors of painters such as Fontana, Rothko and Goya.
While his heroines were much happier and more independent than the founder or Demine, opening the program with a Sinead O'Conor remix singing “in this heart.”
“Add air to shapes. Make ordinary but extraordinary clothing,” said Pierpaolo, explaining his goal. Organize a sample of great grace, poise and polishing at a dark geopolitical and socially for the planet.
“In my opinion, putting your faith in humanity is the most radical act that one can see today,” concluded Piccioli, who took a radiant arch extended in the middle of a long -standing ovation.
