Balenciaga SS25 Takes Paris to Demna’s Dining Room

by

As a gamer who’s spent countless hours navigating virtual worlds and fashion simulations, I must say that Balenciaga‘s Summer 2025 show was nothing short of a mind-bending, reality-altering experience. It felt like stepping out of my console and right into the heart of Paris Fashion Week.

For the Summer 2025 fashion show during Paris Fashion Week, Balenciaga hosted a grand feast. This event attracted notable attendees such as Nicole Kidman, Future, Katy Perry, and Lindsay Lohan. This extravaganza was quite significant for designer Demna, marking a full-circle moment in his career.

He shared that his initial experiences with fashion stemmed from sketching outfits onto cardboard, then cutting them out and hosting ‘fashion shows’ right on his kitchen table as a child. Now, decades later, this show serves as a bridge back to the genesis of my creative vision. It’s a heartfelt homage to a fashion perspective that has endured over time.

At a dining table stretching longer than any we’ve known before, the privileged front-row attendees indulged in a complete meal of high-end Balenciaga fashion. Here, Demna’s revolutionary ideas were exceptionally rebellious: lingerie adorned with sparkle peeked out from under fur coats, while typical “Fashion Designer” padded jackets were worn over low-rise trousers, and denim pants served as jacket lapels. iPhones hung from the models’ wrists, displaying the brand’s emblem, while chargers were discreetly placed on the bags’ exterior, and hats were turned down for anonymity.

As a devoted admirer, I can’t help but express my awe as I recount the captivating finale: A sleek, triangular black satin gown – an undeniable Demna hallmark – brought the show to a close, its elegance echoing in the air. Suddenly, Britney Spears’ “Gimme More” filled the room, only to be abruptly paused, signaling our departure. Demna isn’t about playing it safe; he’s all about pushing fashion’s boundaries, propelling us towards an exciting future.
