Gentle Reader -
This image of a Balenciaga gown belongs to the Cristóbal Balenciaga Museoa (CBM), the home of many a vintage item made by arguably the greatest male designer of the previous century. Certainly we should give credit to his workrooms, those spaces where the clothes were actually made by skilled staff.
It's a masterdress from 1951, in a class all its own. It does not scream for attention; rather curiously, it has its own presence.
