The House of Balenciaga is wowing audiences on HBO Max's Legendary. Most, if not all, ballroom houses are named after fashion labels, and The House of Balenciaga is no exception. As their name suggests, the house is named after the brand Balenciaga, founded in 1917 by Cristóbal Balenciaga Eizaguirre. Balenciaga made a name for himself in his native Spain before moving to Paris in 1937, where the Balenciaga brand became one of the top couturiers in fashion during the 1950s. Learn more about the house by reading about the house members on Legendary and their namesake below: Mother Shannon Balenciaga Shannon Balenciaga, also known by her name Countess Shay, is a designer and Overall Mother of the House of Balenciaga. Shannon has founded a clothing line, the Worldwide House of Royal, and has walked (and won) Face and Best Dressed, becoming Legendary Face. Her other titles include Southeast Region Overall Mother and Mother of the Year for 2020-2021. Shannon recently took over Shadow And Act's Instagram and talked about what it was like to be a part of Legendary as a person known for walking Face, but not for dance. "As a non-dancer, to be around all of these amazing, talented children who can get on that floor and kick ass, literally, I wasn't at...the beginning intimidated ,because I've learned in life that people can smell intimidation and fear," she said. "[If] you go into it having a 100 percent pureness of self, you can conquer anything."
