Withering Flower


Where do designers get there inspiration from? From this vintage Balenciaga one might infer that this couture dress could have been designed after a flower. Its long simplistic bottom reminds us of the stem of the flower. The “Chou wrap” acts as the petals of the flower. Does the color have anything to do with it though? By looking at a flower on a gloomy day or when it is dyeing there is a dark overlay on it. Maybe this is Balenciaga’s way of demonstrating what mother earth has to offer.
