Elie Saab is the go-to for super traditional couture, with lots of chiffon, lace, beading, and red carpet-ness galore. Its the sort of thing footballer’s wives wear to their wedding, when they want to be tradiitonal and flash. I think it is boring, especially this collection.
I Adore…
this little dress. If you are going to do heavily embellished lace, then do it flirty and shirt.
the drapes of tulle and bit of gold on this dress.
I Loathe…
the model's pose, the print, the fact that its strapless, and has a full skirt. This is super-boring couture.
more over-the-top couture, with a corseted bodice, and lots of embellished lace.
more strapless, more full-length, this time draped with a decorative flower. Oh yeah, and a really high slit.
the fact that they didn't even bother to make a lining slip to wear under this dress. The model's thong is not Haute Couture.
a very boring wedding dress.
