Cristobal Balenciaga must be turning in his grave right now.

Balenciaga is the hottest luxury brand in the world atm. Do you think they care about anything except money? Demna has been a massive success as far as they are concerned.

Its middle class blackface; mockingly wearing the shoes thst uncultured, unfashionable broke middle aged men wear ironically

Pic related: the chunky for the masses (USD 149)

In terms of fashion, chunky were the logical next step. After a period of futurism (post-Nike Roshe minimalism) comes a period of retroism (pre-Y2K performance). It's the 20 year rule of revival. Some will bite, some don't. I expect it to be a trend for the next 5 or 6 years, when it'll be phased either for a completely new trend or another revival (based around the year 2003).

Personally, I like the chunky aesthetics. 97/98/99 were good creative years for sports brands and different cultural expressions attached to it. I find it has some sort of 80s classic shoes innocence base, topped with some layers of futurism in the excess of graphics, reflective colors, edging, etc. It's funny they found racing/vehicular concepts as the new millenium.

I think Balenciaga would care, hence why I said the people at the brand have no shame.

He sure successfully turned a respected Fashion House into another streetwear meme. Whether or not this should be praised might depend on who you ask the question to.

Tyler the Creator is a different case though. He has a style that only he can pull off. If you see anyone else but him in his GOLF clothing line, they look like fucking clowns.
