Everyone knows his work, but no one has seen the man. This is what was said about the great and most unknown couturier of the 20th century, Cristóbal Balenciaga. The Basque genius was not a public figure, but still, how did the monarch of high fashion live? Maria Miranda-Fernandez, a journalist and TED speaker, tries to answer this question. She lives through eight of the most significant scenes in Cristóbal’s life: breathing in the sea air of Getaria with the boy while he hurries to show the first dress to the customer, sympathizing with the famous Balenciaga models who hold letters about the closure of the fashion house in their hands. This book will allow you to get to know the avant-garde artist and hermit of the Golden Age of Fashion better.
