Elie Saab A/W 2016

Mood board: Elie Saab sprinkled gypsy dust over his collection this season, transforming his usual high octane red carpet creations into intricate collages of lace, macramé, and Guipure trimmed in loads of bohemian fringe and velvet passementerie.
Best in show: There were several strong pieces hidden behind the heavy styling of this jam packed show. Some of our favourites included a tiered black lace gown with strips of sheer and matte patterns and diaphanous party dresses crusted in giant coloured pearls.
Finishing touches: It's all about the high heel chez Saab. This season in keeping with his exotic theme, Saab proposed high heeled suede or leather booties showered in fringe.
