Ever since Demna Gvasalia sent Balenciaga S/S 17 down the runway, we've been buzzing about the unexpected fabric that featured throughout the whole collection: Spandex.
While it immediately makes us think of bad '80s exercise tapes, the way Gvasalia integrated the unexpected fabric into the collection makes it feel fresh, new, and covetable.
Proof that we aren't the only ones that feel that way? One of the standout pieces from the collection—over-the-knee spandex boots, has been seen all over the street during the A/W 17 shows in Paris.
The boots are currently available for pre-order, and we think they'll become one of your best winter buys. Keep scrolling to see how they're being styled, then pre-order a pair for yourself.
