I've been on Style.com (one of my favourite fashion sites) searching though the S2011RTW collections, i saw Elie Saab's name amongst the vast list of designers and decided to have a look. As Style.com also noticed there is a definite 70's vibe amongst the elegant garments that floated down the runway and might i just note the delicate pastels ands dreamy silhouettes. The show confirmed that sequins are still going strong and dashes of vivid green, orange and pattern assured us that there is a little something for everyone. I must also add the range of garments that we are provided with here, tailored trousers and shorts to jumpsuits and dresses. What struck me most on the Elie Saab cat walk was the exquisite flowing chiffon gowns that boast gretian goddess and beauty. If i were rich (sadly far from it) i'd snap one of these little beauties up in a second and i'm not a gown kind of girl. I appreciate their craftmanship and detail, even dream of owning one or two, but i'm picky. I hate all that prom dress rubbish that makes satin and tuelle look cheap and tasteless, i'm more simple sleek cocktail dress (usually black). However, i'm a sucker for chiffon, just the way it hangs and the way it feels (not to mention the whole princess feel) makes my eyes light up and tantalises my senses. So i bow down to you Saab you genius. Check out Style.com, all images are copyright of them.
