Elie Saab Haute Couture Spring 2003

[xopher215]

Considering last year's Halle Berry Oscar coup for best actress and high on the best-dressed lists, this year could be Elie Saab's chance at his own Oscar coup. A pretty collection, some interesting prints, which was at certain points a bit repetitive.

I adore the leggy silhouette of the first pic in plate one, and Alek Wek looks absolutely stunning in her runway appearances wearing these dresses.

elie saab reminds me of badgley mischka. always lovely flowing dresses, ultra-feminine designs and flattering silhouettes.

nothing new or unexpected, still very pretty

he's doing great 'mainstream' glam wear, he reminds me of valentino and badgley mischka, like abril, i'd say

nothing new or unexpected, still very pretty

as for the last dress, really fantastic.

quite interesting use of prints

thanks for bringing this up xopher 8)

I love this collection !! It's perfect!

I think the last set of pictures wasn't very impressing though

I

It's like Cavalli without all the bad taste........

i think it's ok...alek looks awesome in the green mermaid dress...but it seems to me it's all so...shiny...the gold lame...some of it looks like cheap satin lingerie. anyone care to venture a guess as to what fabric is used in the dress below? maybe it looks better in person, but I think the finish just ruins it...you can tell the drape is nice, but it's just so damn shiny!
