Elie Saab showcased his Autumn Winter couture collection in Paris last week. The long and short dresses, embroidered with colored sequins in ruby, sapphire and emerald - a shot that strikes fans of feminine dresses in the heart.
"It's about the embroidery especially," he said, that and a "structure and style that is a contradiction, mixing the masculine and the feminine".
Sequins, shimmer, shine and crystals are very much the mainstay of Elie Saab’s creations - all red carpet worthy. But this collection seemed far more effortless and simple: the shapes not overly fussy, embroidery not over the top where in the past there was embellishment and then there was embellishment on top of that.
