Yet the label’s origins were rather more discreet; founder Cristóbal Balenciaga was renowned for his privacy, secrecy and need for control over every aspect of the design process. “Even though Balenciaga was born very near to where I live in Spain, I didn’t know how important his figure was,” said Lourdes Iglesias, creator of “Cristóbal Balenciaga,” in an interview with CNN via a translator. Cristóbal Balenciaga in 1927, before the war in Spain forced him to move his business to Paris. “He liked to control everything.”The Balenciaga Maison allowed series’ costume designers, Bina Daigeler and Pepo Ruiz Dorado, access to their archives and museum. It’s clearly a very different era now than the one in which Cristóbal Balenciaga was working in.

Mexico is one of the world's deadliest countries for journalists, with five killed this year, the international free-speech group, Article 19, has said. Another journalist freed on Saturday was Marco Toledo, director of the weekly El Espectador de Taxco, authorities said. Toledo's wife and son had also been kidnapped by five armed men who entered their home last Sunday, Article 19 said. Although Toledo's wife has been freed, authorities are still searching for the journalist's son, the attorney-general's office said in its statement. With a tally of 13 murdered, last year was the deadliest for journalists in Mexico since Article 19 began keeping records in 2000.

Un bărbat din Spania a fost condamnat la 15 ani de închisoare după ce și-a ucis mama și a mâncat bucăți din corpul ei, informează BBC, citat de digi24.ro. Poliția spaniolă a ajuns la apartamentul femeii din Madrid în februarie 2019, după ce o prietenă a acesteia a sunat spunând că este îngrijorată în privința ei. În timpul procesului, instanța a auzit că Gomez, atunci în vârstă de 26 de ani, și-a strangulat mama în timpul unei dispute. Ulterior, acesta i-a tranșat trupul și a consumat părți din el în următoarele două săptămâni, hrănindu-și și câinele cu carne umană. Presa spaniolă a scris că tânărul era cunoscut poliției și mai fusese violent față de mama sa în trecut.

Un bărbat din Madrid a fost trimis în judecată după ce și-ar fi ucis mama, apoi i-ar fi tranșat corpul și mâncat carnea, informează BBC. Alberto Sánchez Gómez a fost arestat în 2019, după ce poliția a mers la locuința femeii în vârsta de 66 de ani, la solicitarea unei cunoștințe. Acuzatul a declarat în instanță că nu-și aduce aminte să-și fi dezmembrat și mâncat mama. Potrivit El Mundo, o parte din rămășițele femeii erau gătite, în timp ce altele se aflau depozitate în caserole. Bărbatul acuzat avea 26 de ani atunci și le-a mărturisit polițiștilor că și-a strangulat mama, apoi a mâncat o parte din trupul ei, iar unele bucăți i le-a dat câinelui.
