The fashion show had Kim Kardashian walking the runway for the first time, with her daughter North West and mother Kris Jenner cheering her from the sidelines - an interesting twist since Kendall Jenner is the model of the family.

Kim was the star of the show, she wore her signature body-hugging black dress and boots that doubled as leggings. 

We also saw actress, Nicole Kidman wrapped in silver taffeta strutting the runway.

Bella Hadid walked the runway, but she is a supermodel, in a way, that’s expected. Naomi Campbell also modeled the collection.

This isn’t the first time this is happening, Founder, Cristóbal Balenciaga loved to pitch his tent with celebrities with a strong sense of style and the fashion house has continued that legacy. In 2021, rapper Cardi B and her husband Offset walked the Balenciaga runway. 

Balenciaga’s latest couture collection was described by The Zoe Report as, “ a mix of architectural, dark- and light-coloured gowns in rich textures, with its most voluminous pieces — a one-shoulder ballgown in light pink and a shiny black ballgown with an oversized, ruff-like collar.”
