Elie Saab Debuts Its Breath Of The Orient Collection, One That’s For the Assured Modern Woman

The collection is comprised of light and airy silhouettes. “Simple” is one word that the Maison uses to describe it. Silks and cottons are expressed in the forms of safari botanicals of palazzo two-piece, breezy dresses, structured shirt dresses, floor-length kaftans, and sleek pants suits. It’s a collection purposely created for the woman who is sure of herself, who has to balance both busy engagements and moments of reflection, and as the Maison notes, who does all this with “consummate ease and charm.”
