Balenciaga Rings in the Lunar New Year With a Tiger-Themed Collection
The zodiac-inspired line features striped fleece jackets and bold sweaters.
Balenciaga celebrates the 2022 Lunar New Year, the Year of the Tiger, with a collection of feline-themed garments.
The 57-piece capsule embraces the fierce energy of the wild cat, using orange, black and white to ground the collection, along with striped patterns and Balenciaga’s classic branding.
A playful tiger print cropped sweater, warm fleece jackets and fluffy slides stand out in the collection, alongside a striped oversized dress and matching button-down shirt.
Joining the Y2K trend, Balenciaga adds an ultra low-rise denim mini skirt to the range. Completing the look is a padded denim jacket with tiger print fleece lining.
Leading the footwear section, the Runner sneakers continue the release’s theme with its orange, black and white silhouette, while statement-making Blade 90mm boots allow the wearer to embody the tiger’s confident strut walking through any concrete jungle. For a subtle celebratory look, pair with the range’s complementing fuzzy socks and the all-over-logo crewneck.
Elsewhere in the collection, the signature animal print covers the Hourglass mini handbag, while vibrant shades of orange appear on the Gossip crossbody purse.
Lovers of Balenciaga’s merch will not miss out as the Year of the Tiger collection is ripe with the label’s eponymous logo. Balenciaga branding is presented on long- and short-sleeved T-shirts, caps, beanies, hoodies and more.
