Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
"
More than a traditional haute couturier, Balenciaga is a fashion powerhouse that continues to shake up the fashion world. Since being founded by Cristóbal Balenciaga in 1919, the brand has continuously evolved its designs, ensuring that it remains at the forefront of cutting-edge styles and boundary-pushing pieces.
Famous for its daring designs, radical shapes and bold silhouettes, Balenciaga revolutionized fashion. Despite the fashion house closing between 1968 and 1986, the label remains at the forefront of fashion trends today. Thanks to designers such as Demna Gvasalia and Pierpaolo Piccioli, the Balenciaga legacy and philosophy lives on, and the brand continues to both challenge and dictate what fashion is.
Packed full of intriguing facts and revealing quotes, this little guide follows Balenciaga's impact and legacy, as well providing insight into the mysterious designer behind the brand.
Sample Content:
""Elegance is elimination."" - Cristóbal Balenciaga
""Balenciaga alone is a couturier in the truest sense of the word. Only he is capable of cutting material, assembling a creation and sewing it by hand, the others are simply fashion designers."" - Coco Chanel
Many of Balenciaga's designs were inspired by his Spanish heritage - homages to flamenco dresses, black lace and matador outfits frequently appeared in his creations.
