Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Balenciaga towel skirt in beige terry cotton cost R16,700 in South Africa.
Their latest design is no different.
As part of the brand’s Spring 2024 collection, Balenciaga has released a ‘towel skirt’ which retails for a whopping $925 (R16,800).
The garment looks exactly like a towel that’s been wrapped around one’s waist when you step out of the shower.
“Nah, Balenciaga a towel skirt? 😭 Who the f**k is the creative director over there,” one X user wrote.
Another user added: “Balenciaga is just trolling humanity.”
One woman said she won’t be buying the towel as she has multiple towels in different colours at home that she can use.
Some social media users have even taken to social media to share pictures of themselves rocking their towels.
According to the website the $925 towel skirt is held up by two buttons inside the waistline and an adjustable belt with a buckle inside with the designer logo embroidered tone-on-tone at the front. It’s made in Italy and has to be dry cleaned.
The model on the Balenciaga website is wearing the grey towel skirt over a pair of grey cargo pants and a black tight zip-up hoodie.
X users were up in arms about their latest design, with one user saying: “I’ll say it again… Balenciaga is conducting an experiment. It’s a behavioural science study. You can’t convince me otherwise.”
