BALENCIAGA – the Blues

 

So the first drop of Balenciaga SS11 arrived this last week and we were all eager to compare the colours.  There are two blues this season, the Nuage which is a bright sky blue colour and the “Ardoise” which is a blue/grey. 

Before they arrive instore, we were expecting a colour similar to “Tempete”.   It is actually lighter, perhaps closer to Argent…anyway a photo is worth a  thousand  words – especially when colours are involved.  Here they are:

We will do a pink colour comparison soon, as the past seasons of Sorbet, Framboise, and Pivione  should be compared with the new Grenadine.  We will have to see what is in on the stocklist.
