Balenciaga in Paris

I am in one of my favorite cities, Paris, for a bit of work and a bit of play.  And one of the first things I wanted to do was to go see an exhibit of one of my favorite designers: Balenciaga.  It is a tiny eclectic show.  A cabinet of curiosities collected by Balenciaga and designed by Balenciaga...


It is a show that combines some of the textiles, laces and embroideries that Balenciaga collected for his own personal collection (and exhibited for the first time) with some wonderful designs from Balenciaga.
