Popular fashion brand, Balenciaga, which was founded in 1919 by the famous Spanish designer, Cristóbal Balenciaga, is once again in the headlines, courtesy of its brand-new shoelace earrings. Back in the time, Spanish aristocracy and royal families used to wear fashion accessories from Balenciaga. However, when the Spanish Civil War began in 1936, the stores of luxury brands were closed.
After a few years, Balenciaga was purchased by a France-based multinational corporation, Kering, and in 1972 the store was reopened for the first time under the leadership of its new owners. The headquarters of the fashion label is in Paris, France. The luxury brand is often called out for selling wasteful products just to gain some publicity and attention. However, no tangible proofs of the same have been mentioned so far. It is still one of the few brands that are both hated and loved by people across the world!
