Ahead of Vogue World 2024: Paris, Vogue and Balenciaga debut a limited edition capsule of collaborative merchandise that’s available starting June 21 at the Balenciaga flagship on Avenue Montaigne in Paris, and online at balenciaga.com.
As Vogue reports, the 10-piece collection, which ranges from $115 to $1,490, celebrates the iconic location where the Vogue World event will take place on June 23: Place Vendôme. Vogue World 2024: Paris marks the first time a show will be held in the renowned square. Another first is the creative partnership itself—a joining of forces that Vogue fashion market and collaborations director Willow Lindley, says both teams have long dreamed of.
As for the pieces that make up the collection, expect to find Balenciaga’s signature unisex T-shirts (one oversized, one fitted) and hoodies (pull-over and zip-up styles) in various colorways, emblazoned with the Vogue and Balenciaga logos on the front and a postcard illustration print of the Parisian landmark on the back. There’s also a cap and a to-go coffee cup, in black and white respectively. The collection’s palette–neutrals with a splash of red–are true to the Balenciaga house codes but also an interpretation of France’s national colors.
Both the ready-to-wear and accessories are pre-washed to have that desirable patina you’d want from well-worn vintage finds; nodding to the theme of Vogue World, which celebrates the history and craftsmanship of French fashion.
Shop the exclusive collection in-store at the Balenciaga flagship at 57 Av. Montaigne, 75008 Paris, France or online at balenciaga.com.
