This suit jacket focuses on the use of curved lines, both in the definition of the outfit's pattern and in the final appearance of the garment. A design with very marked and geometric shapes, but, at the same time, easy-to-wear: “In my opinion, Cristóbal Balenciaga's creations work in perfect harmony with the shapes of the body. He respects them instead of distorting them, but this does not prevent his silhouettes from being innovative. An impression that I also wanted to convey through my work”.
