Cardigan Balenciaga

Balenciaga cardigans - warm branded sweaters

French fashion house Balenciaga, founded in 1919, strikes unusual silhouettes in its contemporary clothing collections. The brand's creative director Damna Gvasalia, who took over in 2015, mixes oversize, logomania and deconstruction. Even when offering such clear and familiar knitwear pieces as the Balenciaga cardigan, he surprises with bold solutions.

He's also been working on a number of new pieces, such as the Balenciaga cardigan.

Features of Balenciaga cardigans

The fashion brand produces men's, women's and unisex cardigans - sweaters with V-necklines and long sleeves, which in the classic version are buttoned. As always, Balenciaga deviates from the rules - changes the cut, adds zippers and elements from other styles. Balenciaga's modern collections feature different types of sweaters:

• The Balenciaga oversize cardigan is the dominant style. It has a loose silhouette, standard-length sleeves or elongated "Pierrot sleeves," and a dropped shoulder line. In front there are two patch pockets and a button closure. This model is convenient to wear over T-shirts or turtlenecks with fine knit.
• Shortened cardigan is a free cut sweater, reaching the waistline. Its V-neckline takes up almost half of its length. Like the over-size model, the Balenciaga shortened cardigan is worn as a second layer.
• The classic cardigan is quite rare in the collection of the brand that creates avant-garde pieces. It has a straight, not tight silhouette, length - up to the upper thigh bone, long sleeves with a slightly lowered shoulder line.
• The extra-long cardigan is an alternative to outerwear in the off-season. It has a length like a floor-length dress, a deep V-neck to the waistline and large patch pockets that can't be used for their intended purpose because they're too low.

Balenciaga makes monochrome cardigans or logo-inspired pieces. The monochrome models have a small rubber patch on the left sleeve with the brand's name. The Balenciaga sweatshirts with the repeated logo have different color combinations, from pink with black to turquoise with white.

Since designer Damna Gvasalia is quite unpredictable, you may see completely different cardigan sweaters in the next collections. In the past, there have been knitted sweaters with ripped bottoms, long cardigans with voluminous batwing sleeves and fluffy furry cardigans.

Benefits of Balenciaga cardigans

French fashion house Balenciaga's cardigan is made of soft warm wool, cashmere, natural cotton and blended fabrics of the highest quality. It looks great with wide leg pants, skinny loafers, jeans and skirts of varying lengths.
