Balenciaga [SEP] parent company
Balenciaga
Balenciaga S.A. is a luxury fashion house founded in Spain by Cristóbal Balenciaga, a designer born in the Basque Country, Spain. The brand is now owned by the French multinational company Kering. Balenciaga had a reputation as a "couturier" of uncompromising standards and was referred to as "the master of us all" by Christian Dior. His bubble skirts and odd, feminine, yet "modernistic silhouettes" became the trademarks of the house.
History.
Cristóbal Balenciaga opened his first boutique in San Sebastián,
Calvin Klein, Cerruti, Chloé, Lagerfeld, and Vera Wang from Unilever. These newest acquisitions, along with existing portfolio licenses including Adidas, Davidoff, and JOOP!, made Coty the largest global fragrance maker.
