In July 1906, everything is quiet in the small Spanish village of Getaria. Young Cristóbal is bored. But thanks to the Marquise of Casa Torres, he will experience weeks that will change his life.

This novel traces the childhood of the “master of fashion designers”, Cristóbal Balenciaga, who dominated fashion in the 1950s and 1960s.
It is followed by a Q&A biography and an illustrated primer, to reenact his elegant, uncluttered style in pictures.
