Balenciaga is considered a luxury fashion house because of its long-standing history of craftsmanship, innovation, and influence on global fashion. Founded in 1917 by Cristóbal Balenciaga, the brand earned early recognition for its structured tailoring and forward-thinking design. Today, it maintains its luxury status by combining high-quality materials with modern, often unconventional design choices that consistently push the fashion industry forward.
Balenciaga stands out for redefining silhouettes and challenging traditional ideas of elegance. From Cristóbal’s architectural couture to Demna Gvasalia’s modern reinterpretations - like oversized tailoring, exaggerated sneakers, and logo-heavy streetwear - the brand has continued to evolve without losing sight of its technical roots. This ability to blend legacy with relevance has helped Balenciaga remain one of the most talked-about names in luxury fashion.
