Nicolas Ghesquière may have been thinking ballet when he designed his Resort 2013 collection for Balenciaga, but when it came time to create a video for the season, his mind had turned to opera. Specifically Malcolm McLaren’s pop opera Madame Butterfly. If you haven’t seen McLaren’s video in a while, or weren’t around when it debuted in 1984, it’s worth a watch. It’s almost as gorgeous as the Steven Meisel-shot clip we’re premiering online here today.
