Balenciaga Blue floral print ruffle Satin Midi Dress Spring 2020

Hailed as “the master of us all” by Christian Dior, Cristóbal Balenciaga was known for his masterful skill with fabric and graceful garments which radically influenced the silhouette of women’s fashions. Known for his popular oversized streetwear aesthetic, creative director Demna Gvasalia’s Spring 2020 collection was a self-proclaimed investigation into “power dressing and fashion uniforms.”

As seen as look #17 on that season’s runway, this beautiful A-line dress is a must-have. Done in silk, it features a floral print in shades of blue, white, and lavender. The bias-pleated dress begins with a demure high V neckline and long sleeves that reach past the wrists. A ruffle adorns each sleeve at the upper arm, complementing the ruffled cuffs while adding a layer of drama. The expertly draped dress falls to a midi length in an asymmetric hem that grazes the knees at the front and extends several inches longer at the back in a long, train-like flounce.

A small keyhole opening at the back of the neck adds a note of visual interest while the asymmetrically cinched waist adds definition to the medley of ruffles and pleats. A bold addition to the discerning fashion lover’s wardrobe, this silk dress is the perfect choice for a wedding, garden party, or special occasion, and can easily be styled with statement heels and accessories.
