Elie Saab Couture Spring 2012

I know, I know! It’s not ground breaking, it’s not unexpected, it’s not  high art, but it’s so pretty! This dresses are for the A-lister  and nobody much else but I refuse to criticise just because Elie Saab has a particular skill and sticks to it. To turn my fashion nose up at it would be to underestimate the joy of going through this collection and revelling in the lightness with which he constructs clothes, the perfect variations he makes in line and detail.  Lots of mere non fashion mortals don’t understand couture because it doesn’t translate into immediate trends but everyone can appreciate these dresses for their beauty and quality.
