The fashion show begins and it is clear from the first releases that Balenciaga's Spring/Summer 2027 is a collection that brings together ready-to-wear and Haute Couture in a well-defined way, which can be recognized in Pierpaolo Piccioli's way of conceiving fashion. His is the world of harmonizing colors by creating contrasts that are sometimes strong, other times soft but always interesting.

Trousers with five pockets and a cape for a great evening even during the day, with decorated flip-flop sandals, which are a real must-have for elevating any type of outfit. There is no more representative look than this to identify what Piccioli thinks about style, a concept that he implements at Balenciaga by exploring solutions to infuse the idea of luxury into the daily wardrobe.

Piccioli works on silhouettes and technical fabrics to create garments with sophisticated volumes, which wink at Haute Couture, a field in which he has great experience. Through an operation that resembles the one Demna recently did with Gucci, the Italian designer reflected on what Balenciaga is all about for him. In the collective imagination, Cristóbal Balenciaga is a couturier, therefore, every creation that comes out of the Atelier must speak of Haute Couture in some way.

Haute Couture as a guiding star for the construction of Ready-to-Wear. The goal? The creation of garments that have always existed designed with a sartorial approach, this is what Piccioli currently intends to do with Balenciaga, a fashion house so iconic that an ultra-contemporary sartorial approach is necessary for the creation of garments with an industrial nature, such as the t-shirt, jeans or a shirt.

The luxury linked to the idea of Haute Couture is given by the way in which one feels in a dress made according to refined techniques, designed for the silhouette of the wearer, a sensation that Piccioli always wanted to give to his fashion, essential more than ever for Balenciaga, a brand with a strong commercial success that never loses sight of its Couture nature.
