: The novel does not shy away from the designer's homosexuality, depicting his primary romantic interests, such as Hugo, a ballet dancer, and later his life partner, Wladzio d'Attainville.

: The book is praised for being an agile, easy read with short, engaging chapters and abundant dialogue that keeps the reader hooked.

: Balenciaga’s innate gift for sewing and his rise through the exclusive world of high fashion, aided by his mentor, the Marquesa de Casa Torres .

: Some critics found the historical setting and atmosphere slightly lacking in detail, suggesting the narrative can feel a bit "floja" (weak) compared to the complex real-life figure of Balenciaga. Recommendation
