Au revoir Nicolas Ghesquière

Nicolas Ghesquière and Balenciaga are parting ways! His departure, at the end of the month, was just announced.

What, why, how can this be?

Nicolas Ghesquière was the creative director at the House sinds 1997. What he did at Balenciaga was amazing! He worked his magic by creating innovative, persuasive, powerful, and highly anticipated collections, season after season. Ghesquière remade Balenciaga one of Paris' iconic Fashion Houses, and one of my personal favorites. To many he was synonymous with The House of Balenciaga, and yes, even good things come to an end.

I'm sad but it's just an au revoir, so I'm looking forward to see what Nicolas Ghesquière will do next. Meanwhile I'll start saving for some gorgious pieces of his S/S2013 master collection.
