Demna Gvasalia's new book Balenciaga: Winter 18
It is Demna Gvasalia’s first book for the house. He chose the British photographer Johnny Dufort and the photographer Pierre-Ange Carlotti from Corsica. They captured models, show preps or fittings of the backstage. They were the only guests of the showrooms and backstage observing the process. The book is made up of 300 fascinating photos. It is printed in neon inks producing deeper blacks and brighter colors than other dyes and pigment inks.

Vetements Show "Family and War by Demna Gvasalia
One of his most interesting collections was the Vetements show inspired by Georgian history. The collection was titled as “Family and War”.The designer wanted to tell his story. He wanted to present a film rather than a show. Georgian alphabet and poetry, the flags of the countries (America, Russia, Ukraine), trends and political events related to the past and recent history of Georgia were reflected on the clothes. The collection represents his personality before coming to Europe.
