5 times Balenciaga baffled with bizarre creations

It is safe to say that Balenciaga has time-and-again managed to garner attention and baffle a majority of fashion enthusiasts with their creations.

Like the Trash Bag that was released by the luxury fashion house as part of their Winter 2022 collection. It now retails for $1,850. Yes, you read that right!

Balenciaga was trolled for launching their limited edition “Paris Sneaker”, a pair of overly distressed sneakers for approximately Rs 1.4 lakh.

The fashion giant also came up with a pair of earrings that resemble shoelaces. The product, quite literally, features laces dangling from the ears bearing the Balenciaga logo. The price? Over Rs 20,000.

A very recent creation by Balenciaga is a wrap skirt that exactly looks like a terry-cloth towel. The piece from Spring 2024 collection is priced at $925 which is approximately Rs 77,000.

Balenciaga’s latest creation is a tape-inspired bracelet that was debuted at the Paris Fashion Week’s Fall/Winter 2024 collection. It has not been officially launched on the brand’s website as yet.
