It’s that time of the year again when we start looking forward to new things, including the new S/S12 colour palette for Balenciaga, because it means that all the beautiful leather bags you’ll be coveting will be in these same colours.
Before we proceed, however, I’ll also need to insert a quick disclaimer. The colours shown here are by no means true to life; they are instead a guide to what you can expect from Balenciaga as far as what is going to be launched.
There are a total of 13 hues in the S/S12 line-up, 3 of which are Noir, Anthracite and Blanc Light that are not featured above, which I’ll simply leave to your imagination. From left to right we’ve got Cris Ciment, Gris Poivre, Rose Bruyere, Rose Blush, Coqueucot (not to be confused with last season’s Coquelicot), Vert Poker, Gylcine, Bleu Indigo, Bleu Cobalt and last but not least, Dark Night (not to be confused with The Dark Knight).
As usual, you should be able to find the new S/S12 offerings at Balenciaga at Hilton Shopping Gallery, otherwise just head online and let Google do the searching. Balenciaga is one of the easiest brands to buy authentic online, you just need to know where to look. So tell me, which colour (or colours) will you be lusting over this season?

Hi, I am planning to get my first Balenciaga RH City but am torn between these 2 colors. Gris Poivre or Dark Knight. Which color do you recommend?
Hi, how do you like the s/s 12 limited edition giant 21 violet in gold hardware? Just to get an opinion!!
Anything in giant hardware is lush. Especially when it is contrasted on a colour like violet.
I’m so excited to buy my first ever Balenciaga bag. Planning to get it this weekend. I’m a bit torn between the City and the Part-Time though. I’m about 164 cm tall so which bag would you recommend? Thanks.
I’ll like to say Part-Time since I like that shape a tad more but it could be too big for you? Try both out and check yourself out in the mirror, see which is more proportioned on you?
Hi, any of you knows how much is the price for the City in Dark Night with regular hardware in SG? Planning to go there on June and can’t wait to get my first Balenciaga.
Gris ciment for me! (FB)
Coqueucot and Gylcine are nice. But Dark Night gets my vote. I am still loving my City in this shade. (FB)
Hiya! Appreciate if you can advice where to buy authentic Balenciaga online? Thanks!
Hi Linda, do check out this post. There are links in the last paragraph that sell authentic Balenciaga bags and SLGs online.

Thanks!!!
I am not familiar with the colors in their fancy names. I like the purple color.
Which is also why I did this post dear, to help folks be familiar with the names and their corresponding colours.
Thanks, dear!
Don’t really like the mini giant studs! Wish they bring back the previous giant!
I thought the mini giant studs were nice too… And it’s not as heavy as their classic giant. And furthermore, there’s just too many imitation on their classic giant… Sad…
I like mini giant studs but I also wear the previous giant from time to time…
I like the mini giant studs – saw them on a Velo someone was carrying and fell in love!
rose blush and bleu indigo are love…
