Anna Wintour Recycles Balenciaga Dress At Multiple Fashion Weeks (PHOTOS)

The Huffington Post   First Posted: 09/29/2011 1:30 pm Updated: 12/09/2011 8:57 am

It's only fitting that Anna Wintour would give us a case of déjà vu during Paris Fashion Week.

With the day's newspaper in hand, Wintour chose to wear a voluminous Balenciaga dress with multiple patterns for the French fashion house's Spring 2012 show on September 29th. However, this isn't the first time the editrix has worn the dress: She packed the same number for her trip to Milan, wearing it to the Vogue Fashion Fund's "Who Is On Next?" party.

Plus, she is such a fan of the frock that she has the same style in a different color. She sported the similar number front row at Marc Jacobs during New York Fashion Week and at multiple events during Fashion's Night Out. It even made an international appearance at Giorgio Armani.

Considering she has recycled Fashion Week ensembles in the past, we can't wait to see what she chooses for the fall shows this February.

Wasn't this the woman, who only weeks ago, slammed Kate Middleton for wearing the same outfit more than once in public?

Bet it isn't her favorite any longer.

Why shouldn't she wear the dress multiple times. She probably loves the dress and feels comfortable in the dress. All the nay sayers are just jealous because they couldn't pull of wearing the same dress.

Remove the horrible sleeves and the dress is pretty decent.

If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?

What I find amazing is that these people think that clothes are a 'wear once and discard' item. Must be frustrating to live in a world where they can't wear anything more than once or it is considered recycling... And since recycling is something so many of them insist everyone should make a habit, it seems downright bizarre to me that they carry such strange clothing habits. Am I the only one who finds this odd or even contradictory?

I, personally, do not like the dress in either color. Furthermore, it doesn't seem to fit her well.

That dress is hideous. And why does she always look like she's been sucking lemons?

That is all an act.
Meant to make her look thoughtful, pondering some deep concept.
I had a boss (dolt is too kind) who used to do this with her face all the time.

I still have my fantasy of crash landing in a small island hopper plane in the vast Pacific with me as the Pilot and Anna Wintour and the only passenger. Things get really steamy around day 35 on that little island when I make her go and pick berries for us. It's posted in my comments thread. Some people really liked it. I know that movie has been made several times over the years. But the new Anna Wintour plot line brings up some new levels if I don't say so myself! Yep me and Anna all alone with nothing to do but try to survive death! One of my very favorite conjured up psychological plot line studies!

And, by the way, your post (which lamentably shall never see the light of published day) on drone attacks on Wall Street execs, tailing them from Connecticut into NYC, was priceless and worthy of William Burroughs. You are on a roll, my Brother.

Wow! "Mountain"! Have not listened to them for ages. Much thanks! "Southbound Train"! A wonderful memory! Yep. My comment did not make it. Anyone who sees the future will be heavily censored on any corporate site. There is no money at all in seeing the future. None.

Have a nice weekend!

The print looks like the print they made in Project Runway. I liked this but she's overdone it.

LOL, when I love something I buy it in two colours also. Of course, I have to pay for my clothes.

two different dresses-different colors- different pleats- fashion reporting means looking.

Why the same shoes always?

That would make sense but she wears the same shoes in her office. I'm sure she
has multiple pairs of them, but it's just odd that it's always the same style and color.

Is this the 1950's or what?

She wears the WORST clothes!!!!
I admire AW BUT I do not understand her choices.

That's the main reason I can't stand most fashion editors. How can you dictate to other people what to wear when you can't even dress yourself?

Carine Roitfeld FTW!
