Balenciaga FW'13 in-store preview

Sometime last month I was invited to preview Alexander Wang's first collection for Balenciaga F/W 2013. These are some of the pieces flown from Paris just for the night.









The key accessories is the barbed wire bracelet and the bow knot metal hardware embedded in some of the clothes. I also saw some bow knots embroidered on the sleeves on the RTW pieces.





Here are some of the runway pieces on models. Of course the cracked leather sweatshirt was there too. To me, the runway shoes that feature so much cleavage 'you couldn't handle' is everything. You really have to see them worn in real life.









I'm obsessed with Balenciaga's latest mini bags. Obviously there is a strong Céline influence (hint: bag wings) but anyways they look pretty much edgy and fresh at the same time. The price is around SGD1,500 to SGD1,700.
