{live from the runway} Balenciaga RTW Spring 2013

“An evocation of mythological drama,” Ghesquière said about the spring collection. He opened with a bright white bra top over slim black pants. Then he moved into an exploration of static motion; with their voluptuous ruffled cascades, his black-and-white evening beauties combined the sensuality of skin-baring movement with the strength of substantial structure delivered in a sturdy silk blend bonded to toile. Togas looked like hanky-hemmed minis but were actually shorts. Tailoring came masculine — light-toned, strong-shouldered pantsuits — and feminine: a terrific modernist take on chichi in what looked like tweeds but were actually multilayered embroideries.
