This outfit is from the Fall 2010 RTW collection by Balenciaga, credit to seen on stardoll!! The designer of Balenciaga at the moment is the French designer Nicolas Ghesquière. The large real version really reminds me of chocolate, i'm not sure why though, and if you look closely on the large version you can see some French text :) You can click on the image if you want to see it bigger.
Taken from Wikipedia:
Nicolas Ghesquière (born 1971, in Comines, Nord-Pas de Calais, France, raised in Loudun,Poitou-Charentes, France) is a globally recognized fashion designer and is currently creative director for the house of Balenciaga owned by the Gucci Group (Pinault-Printemps-Redoute).
He was the son of a Francophone Belgian golf-course owner and manager in the 9,000 inhabitants Poitevine town of Loudun and a French mother who enjoyed fashion. From a young age Ghesquière enjoyed and practised sports (horse riding, fencing and swimming) and many of his collections use that inspiration, most notably his scuba minidresses and most recently his equestrian inspired Fall/Winter 2006 Ready-To-Wear collection. He said himself that he loved the elegant fencing clothes. Nicolas Ghesquière is a big fan of US movie directorBrian De Palma, whose films include Carrie and Scarface.
Raised in the small town of Loudun in western France (in the Poitevin-speaking part), Ghesquière announced at the age of 12 that he wanted to be a designer, though he now admits this was partly from an adolescent desire to do something different from his parents and to alleviate country boredom. So that's by the age of 12 that Nicolas was dreamily sketching dress designs in his school books, making dresses out of his mother's curtains and making earrings out of his grandmother's chandelier crystals.
What do you think of this designer?? Any suggestions on who I should next post about? :)
