Paris Couture, Spring 2009: Elie Saab
Channelling the romance and structure of Haiku poetry as well as the architectural edge of 60s glamour, Elie Saab's Spring 2009 Haute Couture collection offered plenty of voluminous shapes, graphic cuts and origami folds. The palette consisted of pale pastels in lamé, embossed silks, brocades and chiffons. Signature Saab embellishement abounded--crystals sprinkled across a shoulder, rich jewel ornamentation. Front-rower Mischa Barton loved "the dress with the weird hips," a beige embellished number with an open back, while actress Michelle Yeoh could see herself in some on the red carpet. "The clothes are very striking and they are a great form for the feminine figure," she explained. "The work is sexual without being overtly sexy."
