Elie Saab RTW SS10

This season the star collections have been decided and that is that. Balmain, Christian Dior and Chanel are the highlights and if your a style.com fanatic like yours truly, you'll do nothing but nod your head and agree. However after going through every show this season, yes you read correct every show, I have decided that though Balmain is absolutely heaven for any Roitfeld wannabe, Christian Dior is bringing back sexy with lingerie and Chanel had a barn (o.m.g) maybe its all about Elie Saab.
Elie Saab's collection featured a mix of Balmain inspired bodycon dresses which see embellishment to a new high, Grecian slip-like dresses which grace the body in a feminine form as well as a array of wearable ready-to-wear pieces which could be a Kate Moss must-have anytime in the future. The power shoulders were more accessible with a more slimline cut and zips were back in with a vengeance, sexier and more tough-luxe combined with beautiful reds. My personal favourite? the Grecian embellished multicoloured bodycon thigh skimming number which was Lanvin meets Balmain. Viewthe entire collection here.

Elie Saab

Everyone always asks me who my favorite designer is, well here he is. Elie Saab stole my heart from the moment I set my eyes on his designs. He's not afraid to indulge on the decadent side and creates the most incredible couture. It is exotic glamour defined. In a world where everyone is literally identical Elie's designs take us back in time to a place where actual luxury existed. There really is no comparison and there is no other designer who can really take his place in my books. Like Jillian says about Middle Eastern designers like Elie and Zuhair, "This is fashion, this is what it's all about."

Elie Saab

Ok, So maybe Eli Saab is a far cry from being a beast. The little adorable Lebanese man is the mastermind behind some of the most fascinating gowns I've ever seen. The intricate detailing and precision is unbeatable. He outfits the upper-crust including Princesses and Queens. Well, his designs are fit for a Queen and then some. Here are some of his looks form his couture show.
