A rare and striking runway piece from Balenciaga’s iconic Spring 2008 Ready-to-Wear collection, designed by Nicolas Ghesquière at the height of his creative reign. As featured in Vogue, Ghesquière described this season as an “exploration of new territory,” boldly blending vivid color palettes with unconventional materials to reimagine the house’s couture heritage for a new era.

This sculptural jacket exemplifies that vision: crafted from silk-blend neoprene, it marries cream, brown, and floral in a futuristic yet romantic composition. The innovative neoprene structure gives the garment its signature voluminous balloon effect at the back, a direct homage to Cristóbal Balenciaga’s architectural silhouettes — modernized with Ghesquière’s unmistakable edge.

Made in Italy, this piece is a museum-worthy example of 21st-century couture innovation — a collectible masterwork from one of the most critically acclaimed collections of the decade.
