Double Tap to Zoom

Balenciaga looks to be rearing its head following the child scandal conspiracy that surrounded the brand last year.

The Spanish house has posted on Instagram for the first time since claims were made, with an image from its new Garde-Robe 23 collection, also its first release since the early December scandal.

After sharing a statement (which is still visible on its Highlights) on December 2, 2022, the house wiped its 14 million-strong Instagram account clean, and has remained silent until now.

While rumors they'd be showing at Paris Couture Fashion Week look to be untrue, the fact they look to be rolling out a marketing campaign for a new collection signals an attempted return to normality for the house — if that's even possible.
