It's always so emotionale take a glimpse behind the scenes as the haute couture collection comes to life: with a graphic new “Egyptian eye”, makeup guru Tom Pecheux gives silver screen glamour a modern edge while hair stylist Orlando Pita works hair into soft, silky waves to complement precious headbands and satin scarves. Everything belongs to the spring/summer 2017 haute couture collection by Elie Saab, inspired by worm and charming athmosphere of the Nile to create authentic masterpieces.
In fact, the collection celebrates the flourishing culture of mid-century Egypt in creations inspired by the beauty and strength of that era’s icons. Precious renderings of oriental patterns, Arabic calligraphy and glittering palm trees conjured a modern interpretation of a time that continues to be a timeless inspiration.
