The Balenciaga Crush Bag was first seen on the Winter 22 runway, clutched by models trekking through snow in a glass dome. It is exceptionally pliable, made of supple leathers that are diagonally quilted, smooth, croc-embossed, or shiny, its textures and highlights emphasizing tactility.
The Crush’s soft form allows it the ability to collapse and expand with pressure, a deconstructed approach to the classic handbag; its curved and pointed edges iterate on an iconic Balenciaga silhouette, the Hourglass.
