More than a creative dialogue between feminine silhouettes and meticulous savoir-faire, the inspired partnership between fashion maison ELIE SAAB and master hat maker BORSALINO is a manifestation of the relentless pursuit of excellence and expressions of beauty. They created a capsule collection of sculpturesque hats that reinterpret timeless elegance with modern flair.
Addressed to elegant and modern women, the 3 distincts hats, proposed in the “Nila” shape, were unveiled throughout ELIE SAAB’s Ready-to-Wear Fall/Winter 2023-24 collection. They complemented the radiant and fierce female expressions. Adorned with a jeweled ELIE SAAB abstracted monogram and the golden BORSALINO signature, these hats come in three different shades: black, white and blush pink felt.
“Working with historical hatmaker BORSALINO – who shares ELIE SAAB’s core values of quality craftsmanship, unique artistry and exceptional creativity – is a simple broadening of our accessories collection to meet our clientele’s growing wants and desires,” commented Elie Saab Jr, CEO of ELIE SAAB Group.
From his side, General Manager for BORSALINO Mauro Baglietto declard the following: “With the BORSALINO X ELIE SAAB capsule collection, our strategy of experimentation and innovation continues, in search of new creative languages. This collaboration with ELIE SAAB came about naturally, and we discovered that we have many things in common: at the origin of each accessory for both Maisons, lies passion, commitment and dedication towards craftsmanship, in addition to the flash of creative inspiration.”
The BORSALINO X ELIE SAAB capsule collection is now available on both Maison’s e-commerce platforms and in select international fashion boutiques.
