A strapless black silhouette opens into layers of sheer tulle, finished with a sculpted bow at the waist. Romantic yet distinctly modern, the look captures Balestra’s ability to turn volume, transparency and femininity into a statement of Italian Alta Moda.

Black and white, but never simply black and white. A language of contrasts, where Balestra’s silhouettes, details and volumes speak through light, shadow and movement. From timeless elegance to more daring expressions, each look carries the unmistakable character of a Maison that has always made the contrast its own.
