Elie Saab Dresses

Beginning in 2002, no red carpet can do without stars dressed in the dresses of the famous Lebanese designer Elie Saab , who in a relatively short time managed to win the love of women from all over the world with their luxurious, unique dresses.

History of the brand Elie Saab

Eli Saab was born in Lebanon. From childhood, he was fond of fashion and trained in sewing, but to get really serious knowledge in this area and develop his talent in his native country was difficult, so at the age of 18 the young man moves to Paris, where he sharpens his skills to perfection. However, then the beginning designer returns to his homeland and already here he opens his first atelier.

World glory comes to the designer and evening dresses of Elie Saab in 2002, when in his attire at the Oscar ceremony, actress Halle Berry appears. Surely, this fashionable masterpiece of Burgundy wine with a lavish taffeta skirt and rich draperies still could not be forgotten for a long time. In contrast to the heavy skirt, the top of the dress from a translucent mesh with floral embroidery looked especially unusual. This dress is still considered one of the most frank and sexy in the history of the American Academy Awards. In addition, in this dress, Halle Berry met her triumph - it was in 2002 that she became the first ever black actress awarded an Oscar statuette.

Since then the fashion house Eli Saab has been constantly evolving, and every year presents to us new collections of evening dresses. Not so long ago, the designer celebrated his 50th birthday. He still continues to create and please us with his fashionable ideas.
