Following on from the success of last year’s unashamedly rainbow-emblazoned collection of clothing and accessories, Balenciaga rejoins the Event month festivities with a new capsule collection. Demna, Balenciaga’s openly gay innovative director, has opened up in the past about the struggles of growing up in a time and place where he was unable to state himself through clothing. 

The campaign, titled Anybody is Queer, is lensed by Patrick Welde and sees a diverse cast wearing pieces from the new lower, which consists of tops, T-shirts, hoodies, caps, scarves, socks and jewellery, featuring a gendered symbol design that’s been flipped and subverted to depict lgbtq+ love.

Seen elsewhere in the capsule are items displaying an array of Self-acceptance flags (24 in total) to honour all identities. Tops are fitted, hoodies are oversized,

Review of Balenciaga &#;Anybody Is Queer&#; Ad Campaign by Photographer Patrick Welde

Balenciaga celebrates the infinite diversity of queer identity with its new campaign for Self-acceptance , captured by photographer Patrick Welde.

In characteristic Balenciaga fashion, the house’s Identity festival collection sees it get a relatively minimal, incisively subdued approach. Nothing here is plastered with rainbows; instead Balenciaga has subtly reworked binary symbology into inclusive, gender-fluid imagery, and celebrated the many inclusivity flags around the world.

Welde’s campaign imagery consists of portraits of queer artists and activists posing in everyday scenes from their lives while dressed in looks that incorporate pieces of the capsule and other Balenciaga pieces into their own personal way. The message is clearly one of diversity and inclusivity, proving that there is not a standard look for someone who falls into the categories of lesbian, gay, double attraction, transgender, intersex, or queer.

Pride month is here and according to Balenciaga, anybody is homosexual. The message is one of diversity and inclusivity, proving that there is not a characteristic look for someone who falls into the categories of sapphic, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, or queer. Through a series of photos and videos by Patrick Welde, a diverse cast decked out in skin-tight tops, baggy hoodies, graphic tees, caps, scarves, socks and graphic jewellery inspired by gendered symbols made evident by a skirt and pants – all of which of course suit Balenciaga’s quintessential silhouette.

While in some places a chart of international inclusivity flags are featured, there are also exclusive iterations of the Pool Slide, the Track Sneaker and some gym shorts. Each has rainbow colour accents which function as a visual aid to Balenciaga’s history of promoting LGBTQIA+ visibility and acceptance. Plus, 15% of profits from the offering will be donated to Outright Action International, a critical LGBTQIA+ advocate organisation — the only of its kind with consultative status and a permanent presence at the
