The leitmotif of gold runs throughout the essence of ELIE SAAB as wellas the Haute Couture Autumn Winter 2015-2016 collection.
Embroidered gowns in signatures shades of rich gold are inspired by those original gowns that established the Elie Saab name on the global fashion stage, reinterpreted this season to evoke the glistening, golden palaces of Byzantium.
New geometries are discovered, in the forms of vines and foliage as well as the graphicism of Byzance motifs. Delicate lace appliqués and beadwork give surfaces a three dimensional effect.
Empire lines and ballerina lengths offer fluidity, emphasized by the lightness and delicacy of crepe de chine, chiffon and silk tulle. Lace is intricately worked to give a lingerie effect, a hint of seduction, but cut with graphic precision possible only in haute couture.
