First revealed as part of its collection for Fall 2025, the Balenciaga | Automobili Lamborghini collaboration will champion both brands’ shared commitment to bleeding edge innovation, melding Lamborghini’s extreme Italian automotive aesthetics with the Spanish House’s design inspirations.
Born in Spain, couturier Cristóbal Balenciaga first founded his namesake brand with the opening of its first San Sebastián boutique in 1917, before later establishing it on Paris’ Avenue George V in August 1937 when the Spanish Civil War forced him to close his stores back home. The brand is most renowned for having revolutionized modern haute couture with significant form and technique innovations, continuing to redefine luxury fashion under the artistic direction of Demna Gvasalia since 2015. Its storied heritage is seamlessly blended with boldly forward looking modernity across men’s and women’s ready-to-wear collections, accessories, and desirable objets d’art.
For the Balenciaga | Automobili Lamborghini collection, its range will encompass ready-to-wear, leather goods, jewelry, and accessories, to be made available through selected global flagship Balenciaga stores and online. Key styling elements will include motorsport inspired leather racing jackets and oversized bomber jackets, pairing well with T-shirts, hoodies, and trompe-l’œil layered shirts with Lamborghini Temerario artwork.
New variants of Balenciaga’s Rodeo, Hourglass, Explorer, and Carrie bags adorned with Automobili Lamborghini’s iconic Shield emblem will also feature in the line-up, along with the Dashboard Clutch plus charms designed to emulate the Shield emblem and Temerario key fob to really jazz them up. Fashion lensman Stef Mitchell was charged with shooting the Balenciaga | Automobili Lamborghini campaign, a task he more than lived up to by juxtapositioning the edgily futuristic Lamborghini Revuelto with models wearing the collaboration’s pieces styled according to the Fall 25 collection’s creative influences.
A series of curated activations will commence in selected global Balenciaga stores to launch the collaboration in striking live action, with customized Lamborghini super sports cars, artworks and an Apple Vision Pro virtual experience being the star highlights. These flagship Balenciaga stores including on Paris’ Avenue Montaigne, Shanghai’s Taikoo Hui, Miami’s Design District, and New York’s Greene Street will feature Lamborghini Revueltos with Balenciaga graffiti decals as frontal displays. Pop-ups will also be hosted at specially chosen locations in Tokyo’s Toranomon district, the Dubai Mall, and The Hyundai in Seoul – with a specific unique colourway showcased in each region.
Furthermore, an exclusive Balenciaga | Automobili Lamborghini edition of the “Platooning Facial Skeleton” series by German artist Yngve Holen will enhance the collaboration’s artistic and cultural values as a new rendition of Balenciaga’s Art in Stores project. Featuring individually mounted Automobili Lamborghini supercar components, the artworks highlight their anatomy in a more intimately detailed manner. Flagship Balenciaga stores on Milan’s Via Montenapoleone, Paris’ Avenue Montaigne, and London’s New Bond Street will be among those selected to exhibit these artworks.
There’s even more in store for devotees of both the supercar marque and fashion House: Vesaro Automobili Lamborghini driving simulators designed in tandem with Lamborghini Centro Stile and incorporating genuine Lamborghini components will be installed as drivable in-store activations at flagship stores, including the ones in Paris’ Rue Saint-Honoré, London’s Sloane Street, and Shanghai’s Taikoo Hui.
Visitors will also get to explore the new Temerario in virtual reality via an Automobili Lamborghini Apple Vision Pro app. Driven by their advanced immersive technology, these digital experiences will connect Balenciaga clients even more deeply with the realm of Lamborghini, beyond the privilege of purchasing and enjoying ownership of the collection’s wearable pieces.
