Paris Fashion Week Coverage

Elie Saab Spring 2012

For all of the brilliant colors we’ve seen on the runway this season, Elie Saab presents one of the most coherent versions of a richly-hued collection. The purpose of this show was to present a visual assault of the deepest saffron, Kelly greens, and cobalt blues. Though it started off with a series of simple neutrals, it progressed quickly into a heart-quickening parade of lovely shades of the rainbow. The looks here are pretty basic: sweeping goddess gowns, lace and sheer details, high-slits and chic minidresses. They would have been boring if they hadn’t been dressed up in such a plush palette of colors. Elie Saab succeeds in, once again, creating a wearable collection of gowns and frocks destined to head straight to the red carpet.
