Elie Saab’s Enchanting Collection at NY Bridal Fashion Week
I have always been a huge fan of Elie Saab. His designs are always daring and chic, ethereal, intricate and feminine. The Elie Saab show at NY Bridal Fashion Week was a masterclass in bridal elegance.
Elegance Redefined by Elie Saab
Elie Saab is synonymous with opulence and intricate detail, and his Spring 2024 bridal collection was no exception. Inspired by the artistry of classical painters, each gown Saab presented was a blend of traditional elegance and contemporary flair. The collection featured a palette of ivory, cream, and blush, embroidered with delicate lace, pearls, and sequins that played with light and shadow to create an ethereal glow. The collection is whimsical, feminine, with classic silhouettes.
Designs
Elie Saab’s gowns this season varied from grand ball gowns with voluminous skirts to sleek, form-fitting dresses, and short dresses with trains. His use of intricate floral appliqués and shimmering beadwork added a layer of texture and depth to each piece. Transparent fabrics and plunging necklines were balanced with more conservative designs featuring high collars and long sleeves, offering options for both the daring and more conservative bride.
The Elie Saab Bride
The Elie Saab bride is someone who appreciates the finer details and rich craftsmanship of haute couture. She is confident, stylish, and wants her wedding dress to be more than just attire—it’s a statement of her personal style and sophistication. The detailed embroidery and luxurious fabrics make these dresses perfect for sophisticated city weddings or garden party nuptials.
Where to Buy
Elie Saab’s collections are sold at two of our favorite bridal ateliers. You can find them at Carine’s Bridal Atelier in Washington DC, and Mark Ingram Bridal Atelier in New York City. You can also visit their flagship location in NYC. If you are unable to make it to the city, they do offer online appointments where you can browse and get advice from a bridal attendant.
