This collection from Balenciaga by Nicholas Ghesquiere IS SHRIMPDICULOUS. The first time I saw it I focused on the shoes, which are truly a work of art- BUT THEN as I saw it pop up in more fashion spreads I picked up on little intricacies. Finally one day I watched the show itself and my mind couldn't even begin to wrap around the silhouettes, couldn't even begin to understand the textures (let alone how they were created), the color schemes in all of their brilliance. It was like this post-tech neo-easter dream! It's what Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century's costuming could have looked like if it has a Fifth Element budget... and you know, not been on the Disney Channel. But the point is this is truly inspired. I have never in my life seen some of the things that are in this collection and that is true design in all of it's peculiar wonder.
