Balenciaga Fall 26 by Pierpaolo Piccioli: Body, Being, and Desire

Pierpaolo Piccioli introduces Balenciaga Fall 26 through Body and Being, a lookbook that strips fashion back to its most intimate subject: the human form. Rooted in the architectural rigor of Cristóbal Balenciaga and charged with a contemporary language of sport, movement, and technology, the collection feels both disciplined and deeply sensual.

Photographed by Robin Galiegue across Paris, the imagery unfolds like a quiet performance — bodies in motion, silhouettes sculpted rather than styled. Womenswear shares space with Piccioli’s vision of the Balenciaga man: modern, tactile, and emotionally present.

The cast of new faces and friends of the House includes Benjamin Voisin, Keith Powers, Luther Ford, Eliot Sumner, Juyeon, alongside Alice Da Luz, Laufey, and Sarah Catherine Hook — each bringing a lived-in intimacy that blurs the line between fashion, identity, and desire.

This is Balenciaga as anatomy and attitude — where the body is not dressed, but revealed.
