Balenciaga designer Pier Paolo Piccioli’s highly anticipated Haute Couture debut for Balenciaga took place this week in the scenic courtyard and palatial steps of the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris… and it was “stunning… awe-inspiring… just perfection,” my source said.
The “triumphant return to form,” complete with a gown made of 24,150 hand-cut gazar petals and a beautiful rooster-feather reimagining of a 1967 archival look, was met with widespread acclaim from the press and earned an emotional standing ovation from an audience that included front-row stars like Demi Moore, Cynthia Erivo, and Naomi Watts.
Noticeably, one person was not at the show: his supposed good friend and “collaborator” (according to her), the Duchess of Sussex.
“Oh God no, she was not invited,” My source said. “Not after what happened last time.”
