BALENCIAGA

Brand-print drawstring-waist woven shorts

Since taking Balenciaga’s helm, Demna Gvasalia’s creative direction continues to take on the same experimental attitude as his predecessors – think distinctive branding, subtle texturing and avant-garde cuts, all of which can be found on this pair of shorts. Spun from a light blend that’s perfect for summer, they’re given a crumpled texture and side-split hems. Of course, the French maison’s namesake is scribbled across the design, too.
