@eliesaabworld fall 2024 haute couture runway finale.
Elie Saab visited an enchanted garden this season, opening his fall couture collection with a burst of bold black dotted with magenta and teal flowers.
Strength was conveyed in leather opera-length gloves that added an edge of toughness to Saab’s traditionally feminine silhouettes. Those were slimmed down this season with fewer princess shapes replaced by columns or trumpet skirts that ensured volume would not be missed.
The Lebanese designer was inspired by Russian Khokhloma art, the traditional painting of florals and nature elements on black lacquered wood, a color contrast Saab embraced here embodied via vines twisting up the bodice and bustiers extending away from the body for added shape. He looked to Gothic tones for the core of the collection.
