Balenciaga’s Demna Retrospective: A Legacy Rewritten and Preserved at Zoo

In a bold move that bridges fashion past, present and future, Balenciaga has unveiled a retrospective exhibition dedicated to Demna at their Rue De Sevres headquarters in Paris. This homage doesn’t just look back, rather cementing Demna’s era as a defining moment in the house's identity. For those of us at Zoo Fashions, who have long championed his most radical and sought-after pieces, the exhibition is more than just a showcase, it’s a mirror of our own journey curating and collecting his most iconic work.

LOOKING FOR MORE?

Spanish fashion designer Cristóbal Balenciaga left an indelible mark on fashion as we know it. Formed in 1919 in his namesake, Paris-based Balenciaga has grown to become a titanic entity in the world of haute couture and remains a consistently evolving label to this day.


The label is currently helmed by Demna, a designer who’s widely known for his futuristic collections, his explorative commentary on pop-culture tropes and his steadfast dedication to sustainability.


Generation-defining silhouettes like the iconic Triple S, Track and Speed trainers are just a handful of the many instantly recognisable classics that have helped to cultivate a global mass appeal for the label.
