As If
The moon is as bright as the sun
As if
we could take the stars,
pull them down and use them for light.
As if
we could dance
until the floor began to glow.
As if
we could love
until nothing remained but love.
As if it were —
until it will be.
Grazie to everyone for making this possible. Love, Pp

I chose individuals, not characters. Human beings with distinct stories, faces marked by experience, vulnerability, and nuance. I was not looking for constructed personas, but for real presence.
At the center of Summer 26 is the creation of a new community — individuals who are all different, yet connected by shared values: respect, sensitivity, strength, freedom. Not sameness, but resonance.
We photographed the campaign in a suspended, heterotopic space — a place where time feels paused. In that stillness, identity becomes clearer, and connection becomes possible.
My work in this maison is always about the people who wear the clothes — how they move, how they feel, how they exist in the world. I want the garments to bring ease and confidence, never to overpower. The person wears the clothing, never the opposite.
For me, this campaign is about creating a space where individuality forms community and values shape the aesthetic.

So you decided it was time. I can accept your absence, but never your death. Memory, remembrance and love remain with us forever, and I believe this is how we never truly abandon those we love.
I will come to say goodbye, elegant and composed, aware of your gaze upon me (I will undoubtedly misstep somewhere). Around me there will be immaculate order, yet I will know that behind such precision lived an unexpected lightness. An almost innocent brilliance, as though every idea were always the first, as though wonder had never faded. That is what made everything possible, and magical. For you, beauty was never a luxury nor an ornament: it was a form of defence, a place of safety, the only one possible. A protection, a shield against the world. You were my mentor without ever needing a lectern; you had no need of one.You taught me that fashion is joy, though a profoundly serious kind of joy.
A thousand memories pass through my mind, above all the infinite patience with which you answered the countless questions I wore you down with during fittings, naturally with hair and make-up done. Farah Diba leaving Persia. Studio 54, Bianca Jagger on horseback. Halston’s house, and Nan Kempner.
I witnessed everything that lives in fashion’s collective imagination through your eyes and your stories: the endless discussions about Sanremo, and why leather shoes never belong with a chiffon dress.
You taught me so many things. Above all, never to doubt myself or my ideas.
And the bows too, yes: you taught me how to make the most beautiful bows in the world. And I learned that love is protection, because the way Giancarlo loved you was a shield against the harshness of the world, and the most precious gift one could ask for. I will say goodbye to you in this way, with composed gratitude and a trace of imperfection. For this, too, is what you taught me: that absolute precision without humanity leaves no trace, while a mistake shaped with intelligence can become style
You created an eternity, a place made of dream and beauty. There, death does not exist, because it is unnecessary. It is a place that will remain, for me, for everyone, forever.

I believe fashion begins with people. With their bodies, their emotions, their way of moving through the world. For this collection, I wanted to listen—to observe how people live, how they inhabit clothes, how they express themselves without performance. The community you see here is not constructed; it is felt. These are individuals with different stories, different sensitivities, different strengths, brought together by a shared presence rather than a shared image. I wanted them to be seen as they are, in real moments, in real places, because that is where truth exists. For me, this is Balenciaga today: a house that belongs to the people who wear it, that embraces vulnerability as much as confidence, that values connection over hierarchy. This community is an act of care, of respect, and of love—an affirmation that clothing can hold humanity, and that together, we are stronger, more beautiful, more real.

Balenciaga Fall 2026.
The Body and the Human. Tech-wear & Couture.
I began with the body.
Its lightness, its elasticity, its intelligence.
For Fall 2026, I looked to Cristóbal Balenciaga’s method — not nostalgia, but humanity. Clothes that listen, move, and live in the present, where sports, technology, and couture meet.
Luxury today is comfort.
Ease is a state of mind.
Fall 26 exists in real life — in motion, in the city, at home.
It is worn by individuals, not archetypes. A community, not a cast. Each one bringing their own energy, their own truth. Together, they shape a new Balenciaga culture.
Strength remains. Boldness remains.
But elegance is a gesture — sometimes heightened, sometimes subtle — capable of transforming the ordinary.
Fall 2026 is about removing hierarchies.
About freedom of dress.
About caring for the body, and honoring movement.
This is where Balenciaga lives today.

Balenciaga Fall 2026.
The Body and the Human. Tech-wear & Couture.
I began with the body.
Its lightness, its elasticity, its intelligence.
For Fall 2026, I looked to Cristóbal Balenciaga’s method — not nostalgia, but humanity. Clothes that listen, move, and live in the present, where sports, technology, and couture meet.
Luxury today is comfort.
Ease is a state of mind.
Fall 26 exists in real life — in motion, in the city, at home.
It is worn by individuals, not archetypes. A community, not a cast. Each one bringing their own energy, their own truth. Together, they shape a new Balenciaga culture.
Strength remains. Boldness remains.
But elegance is a gesture — sometimes heightened, sometimes subtle — capable of transforming the ordinary.
Fall 2026 is about removing hierarchies.
About freedom of dress.
About caring for the body, and honoring movement.

The heartbeat.
The heartbeat is the rhythm we share, all of us, here. The pulse that reminds us we are human. But no heart beats like the other. In commonality lies individuality: what defines us also connects us, what is universal in presence becomes personal in expression.
We exist in feeling, in recognition, in the memory of who we have been and in the imagination of who we will become. What brought me here has been a journey saturated with emotions, pushing me forward with force—not only teaching me, but revealing parts of myself I hardly knew. I embraced unpredictability, the endless days, and the act of working with the heart—letting it lead, learn, and act on its own.
For every heartbeat there is a name, a moment, a gesture. This collection comes from that place of love and connection. It is as much mine as it is of those who lived it with me—in every way. Perhaps with a different pulse, but always with the same soul. This collection exists because we recognized, saw, and welcomed one another.
Grazie. Thank you to everyone that made this possible.
Always. Pp

With the expertise of our teams and the dynamic creative energy that has historically driven Balenciaga, I look forward to what we will build together”
Pierpaolo Piccioli: “In all its phases, while constantly evolving and changing, Balenciaga has never lost track of the House’s aesthetic values. What I am receiving is a brand full of possibilities that is incredibly fascinating. I must first and foremost thank Demna; I’ve always admired his vision. I couldn’t ask for a better passing of the torch. This gives me the chance to shape a new version of the Maison, adding another chapter with a new story. I am grateful for the trust that François-Henri, Francesca and Gianfranco are giving me. We were effortlessly on the same page from the start, and that is the best way to begin something new”

Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden.

Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media.
