Balenciaga x The Simpsons

Balenciaga had a spectacular surprise at Paris Fashion Week. Instead of throwing a traditional runway show, the brand had collaborated with the creators of The Simpsons for a ten minute cartoon which were shown in a theatre at Place du Châtelet. In the clip The Simpsons family and other familiar Springfield characters such as Mo, Smithers and Chief Wiggum to name a few, travel to Paris and end up at Balenciaga’s runway show where they make a fabulous runway debut. As a breath of fresh air, the luxury maison even pokes fun at itself for the high prices and extravagant shapes as Marge can not go through the door when wearing a couture dress and Homer fainting when seeing the $119,000 US price tag for the dress. Have a laugh by checking out Balenciaga’s Simpsons episode, it’s a must!
