Cristobal Balenciaga opened his first haute couture house in San Sébastian, Spain in 1918.

Balenciaga soon came to embody Parisian elegance and was hailed by designer Christian Dior as ‘The Couturier of Couturiers’ and ‘The Master of us all’’.

Cristobal Balenciaga died in 1972 and his nephews took over the business.

Today, the House of Balenciaga creates women’s and men’s ready-to-wear, shoes and accessories, which is sold worldwide to great acclaim.
