Cristobal, a man native to Spain, founded his first haute couture house in San Sebastian. It wasn't very long before the people there began to become interested in his work. After realizing that people loved what he offered, he opened a second store in Madrid, Spain, then his third in Barcelona. In 1937, Cristobal moved himself to Paris, France where he soon became the embodiment of Parisian fashion. Christened "Couturier of Couturiers", he is still creating fashion after fashion in shoes, clothes, and clothing accessories all over the world. More than ever Cristobal is creating apparel wonders with his Balenciaga Handbags.
