Elie Saab’s Resort 2022 Is Summer’s Warmest Radiance

Elie Saab’s Resort 2022 collection, titled “Infinite Horizon”, inspires an endless play to welcome changing seasons, fresh beginnings and new realities, together.
Yes, the sun is out and summer is right here. The Lebanese couturier sees that it’s time to re-emerge in the sun’s revitalizing energy. Rather naturally, his muse is drawn outside to gardens blossoming with jasmine and gardenias, to the water’s edge looking toward the indigo horizon that holds such infinite promise, and that’s exactly where the “Infinite Horizon” was inspired from.
The collection is so fresh, breezy and feminine. From pleated gowns with thigh-high slits in uplifting pops of mandarin red, green sheen, and electric blue, to black and white sailor-inspired ensembles with gold monogram buttons, each piece exhibits a pronounced femininity that accentuates the lively woman’s strong, playful and sophisticated essences, all in the same breath.
We saw the magical volumes and flattering silhouettes. Sporty shorts and bomber jackets bloomed in vibrant floral prints are were paired with black monogram hats. Ruffled layered tulle flock day dresses play with translucency, dramatic fringed accents, and relaxed jersey ensembles, allow for ease of movement.
The wardrobe Elie Saab prepared is filled with a variety of visions, to comfortably dress all desires. Fluid black and white horizontal stripes move like waves, softening defined lines and leaving behind a confident impression. An airy golden knit crop top paired with a black, white, and gold vertical striped skirt allow for a breezy transition from day to night, allowing the mind to wander and dream into the depths of the horizon. Like awakening stars, the women shimmer and shine in dazzling beaded tulle dresses in moving vertical motion and organic flower outlines. They end their day dancing into the sunset, looking as graceful, alluring, and effortless.
