BALENCIAGAFRAGRANCE.COM IS NOW LIVE
Following the huge success of Balenciaga’s flagship e-commerce site, Wednesday has once again collaborated with the esteemed Parisian house to launch BalenciagaFragrance.com, the new online home for the new landmark fragrances, ‘Paris’ & ‘L’Essence’. The site celebrates a return to perfumery – a line of business not seen since the launch of ‘Le Dix’ in 1947.
With an aesthetic approach consistent with the flagship site, Wednesday’s design utilises the full width of the browser to make the most of the beautiful campaign imagery, whilst the innovative zoom functionality allows for intuitive navigation and simple cross-platform functionality.
To mark the recent launch of L’Essence, Wednesday invites you to partake in ‘Your L’Essence’, a unique mobile photography competition – a first for the brand.

THE NEW BALENCIAGA.COM IS NOW LIVE
Over the past year Wednesday has joined forces with the House of Balenciaga under the creative direction of Nicolas Ghesquière to create the new transactional home of Balenciaga.com.
Balenciaga has been an internationally acclaimed fashion house since 1937. Cristobal Balenciaga was deemed “the master of us all” by Christian Dior and since 1997 driven by the vision and the ambition of Nicolas Ghesquière the House came back strong as a leading player on the international fashion scene.
Wednesday have been working side by side with Balenciaga to interpret these timeless and unsurpassable designs into a digital transactional home. This new website’s creative concept was conceived with the intent of showcasing the immense detail that is crafted into each and every item whilst maintaining the refined and minimalist style of the house of Balenciaga. Fundamental to this concept, Wednesday created an innovative zoom function that enables the user to to explore and discover content throughout the site in two contrasting viewpoints wherever they are, creating both a seamless shopping and immersive brand experience.
In addition to Balenciaga.com, Wednesday have been working with the Maison on a Social Media strategy which aligns the brand with the social ecosystem of the modern world. This strategy will launch alongside the new website and evolve over the forthcoming months and years.
