      Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) Balenciaga (Alberto San Juan) is dedicated to elegance. The show operates in a similar way: refinement in the period detail and production values shines through. Any scandals come with subtle reflection. Feb 9, 2024 Full Review Benji Wilson Daily Telegraph (UK) As a story, the drama strives for the sophisticated simplicity of his designs but it dresses itself in a narrative straitjacket... Rated: 3/5 Feb 2, 2024 Full Review Victoria Moss London Evening Standard As a study in the changing politics and times of the Twentieth century it's riveting; as a biopic of a man perhaps lost in the annals of time to the brand identity of his name, a timely, much-needed revelation. Rated: 4/5 Jan 23, 2024 Full Review Donal Lynch Sunday Independent (Ireland) If you loved Halston this will float your boat. Feb 5, 2024 Full Review Martín Fernández Cruz La Nación (Argentina) Each of the six episodes that make up this series goes from macro to micro; each one begins with a portrait of the vast world of fashion and then focuses on the individual torments of its protagonist.

      Lucas G This is high quality television. The show not only shows the man and his life, it perfectly portraits the historical moments and most importantly, his art and his creative work. It is a chic show with beautiful outfits, but it is also a lot more.
