Elie Saab's Spring/Paris Fashion Week 2011 collection left a mixed aftertaste. A master couturier, his recent runway show came nothing short of magic, as expected.
White, cream,green chartreuse, apricot and blue featured prominently, with jewel necklaces provided the necessary accents.
The most noticeable was the variation of asymmetrical gowns, Elie Saab's trademark- ruched, sequinned or draped. The usual Saab's skirt of volumes, with underlayers or sheer overlayers prolonged reign season after season.The classic Elie Saab equals boring is sometimes true, and it was déja-vu at every show, especially his red carpet pieces.
Structured fluidity prevailed in draped and ruched chiffon pieces but his repetitive embroideries were arguably inferior from the other fabulous runway collection.
A visual feast of regalia and grandeur – but not much more. Predictably, the fine line between opulence and ostentation was frequently blurred. While the bar of craft was raised extremely high in every ELIE SAAB show, there were too many overlapping elements, due to the repetitive materials, techniques, fabrics and motifs......but celebrities and starlets needed Saab for outlandish show of dreams....so still, he could be forgiven....!!!
