Le livre Balenciaga fait partie de la collection "Légendes de la Mode II". Une collection incontournable pour les amoureux de la mode.
La série la plus complète jamais consacrée à l’histoire de la mode et de ses maisons légendaires : vous y découvrirez les pièces iconiques, les accessoires emblématiques, les styles marquants, sans oublier les campagnes publicitaires qui ont marqué leur époque.
Vous plongerez dans l’univers des génies créatifs derrière chaque grande maison, de Coco Chanel à Christian Dior, en passant par Yves Saint Laurent, Tom Ford, Louis Vuitton, Miuccia Prada, et bien d’autres encore…
Une collection exclusive de livres déco conçue par des experts de la mode : un style captivant, de belles couvertures rigides et des pages intérieures richement illustrées (plus de 3 500 photographies) pour des livres haute couture indispensables, conçus comme de véritables objets de collection.
Qui se cache derrière celui que l’on surnomme « le couturier des couturiers » ? Né à Getaria, sur la côte basque, Cristóbal Balenciaga forge son œil et sa main en Espagne avant que les guerres – d’abord civile, puis mondiale – ne bouleversent son destin et ne le conduisent à Paris. Pourtant, sa terre natale ne le quitte jamais : on la retrouve dans les tonalités sombres et dramatiques de ses créations inspirées des mantilles, des toreros ou encore des tableaux de Velázquez.
Au fil des pages, se dessine une vie jalonnée de rencontres et d’histoires fascinantes : l’influence majeure de Coco Chanel et l’admiration réciproque qu’ils se portent, les célèbres confrontations esthétiques avec Christian Dior, ou l’amitié intime avec Hubert de Givenchy, pour qui Balenciaga fut une véritable figure paternelle.
Ses collections, elles, enchaînent les révolutions silencieuses : constructions de manches inédites, volumes sculptés, robes devenues iconiques – Baby Doll, robe-cape, modèle Infante, silhouette tunique… Jusqu’à cette question qui hante l’histoire de la mode : pourquoi Balenciaga a-t-il choisi de se retirer ? Pour beaucoup, son départ marque la fin d’une ère et d’une certaine idée de la haute couture.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
