Here's an exciting rumor:
Balenciaga's been calling in models to Paris for castings. Male models.
Yes.
We don't know if this means a full line of menswear or just boys in drag, but keep your eyes peeled, especially since his next show is just next week.
Obviously, we really want to see if Nicolas can do for menswear what he's been doing so successfully for womenswear.
Will he make feminine boy clothes to complement the way he's kicked wide open the door for masculine womenswear? Will he take the futuristic direction that he's planted in the minds of so many other designers to another exponential level? Does this make Nicolas the new Hedi?
Stay tuned...
