Balenciaga is often called a designer for designers. By and large, it was with him began the new era of tailor's art. They say he made a revolution in the fashion industry. What he's done? Align cutting principles of the twentieth century with the principles of building shapes, characteristic of previous eras, adding to all this wealth for its original ideas and developments.




Balenciaga count and sum up all the ideas that have been created during the existence of fashion. Tyurnyur, create a beautiful and attractive to men ass, huge medieval sleeves, fashion era of "Empire" - all found their place in the work of the Spanish designer. But the most important of his discovery was in principle the creation of a suit. If I may say so - was the author of Balenciaga in postmodern fashion, where each charge becomes not only the dress, but also a certain way, and carried with it some idea.

The costume of the late XIX century to the XX-th in the wake of feminism lost its relevance. A huge amount of jewelry to dress a thing of the past, beginning shortened skirt, ladies cut hair and sat behind the wheel of a car ... But there was nothing new. Fashion 20s silhouette stripped and monotonous: it is a square square :))). Balenciaga was the first to use a volume created with a clear-cut suit silhouette, began to emphasize the waist, he has introduced new principles for the use of finish "accent." At the same time in his ideas, he repelled from the figure of the model and fabric. Balenciaga created the "individual" fashion, using sculptural techniques vyleplivaya of its models something more beautiful, hide flaws and at the same time revealing their identity. This method resulted in a large number of new silhouettes, celebrating the opening of which belongs to Balenciaga.

The most spectacular of his idea - a closed evening dress with an open back, another popular idea now - huge extravagant capes for evening and futuristic hoods complete with dress-cover. Every three to five years Balenciaga offers a new concept costume: 1950 - blouses and "flying" coat without a collar (which subsequently made a name for himself Givenchy), in 1954-1955. - A narrow silhouette, nicknamed "line i», in 1955 - dress, trapeze, tight dresses with tunic Shirt sleeves cut in 1956 - the silhouette of "Nao" (bag) and dress-barrel, in 1958 - dress with a high waist "baby dollars" in the style of "Empire" and "hat-box." Pure color, no sharp angles, large buttons and collars, sleeves in three quarters, weird hats, wide use of black, the widespread use of contrasts and combinations of volumes and fabrics too, came into use with a light hand Balenciaga.



































































I think its main principle - a "do figure." Just some bow at the back - and the figure of a woman to become not only majestic, but also very interesting. If you go to the dressmaker - can use :)).
