[Balenciaga](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platform-sneaker-1) brought C3PO leggings into style last season, and for Spring 2009, Nicolas GhesquiÃ¨re is sticking with the theme with pieces like the [galactic tunic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fendi-and-mad-architects). Paired with a longsleeved white shirt, he sent a model down the runway at Paris Fashion Week in a glitzy jumper that looked more like fish scales than a high end dress.

And did you take a look at the tights?

**Implications** - The pearly tights have patterns at the bottoms that make it look like they morph into shoes! The wild effect of the tights fits in with the spaced-out dresses perfectly. It's safe to say that the Balenciaga Spring 2009 Ready-To-Wear collection is out of this world!
