Elie Saab Bridal Fall 2022: Portraits in Motion

Timeless yet modern silhouettes, royal yet romantic, poised yet ever changing; the Elie Saab Bridal Fall 2022 collection reinforces the majestic femininity that is in the DNA of the Couture house.
The Lebanese designer has just unveiled the Elie Saab Bridal 2021 collection, themed “Portraits in Motion”. Thin trails of fine silk and the most delicate lace leave an elusive imprint of the bride’s graceful image, an ethereal trace that captures, if only for a moment, her imperial poise and composure.. Timeless silhouettes with a touch of royal are made with sumptuous fabrics and exquisite details, coming to life with every subtle glance, slight gesture and gentle movement.
The fairy-tale wedding gowns capture an exquisite bridal majesty and seem to move in choreography with the bride. Fresh, ethereal macramé delicately laces into whimsical shoulder bows before plunging into strong sculpted a-lines. Dazzling stones and silver sequins flow into organza layers, reflecting light to create an enveloping glowing aura. A ballerina bodice blossoms into exquisite layers of organza petals, while organza flowers fall off the shoulder and silken threads sparkle as they wave.
Every moving gown is an invitation to be present and in the moment. An elusively sheer neckline gradually becomes an embroidered mermaid silhouette with a detachable overskirt, bringing versatility and ease to perpetual motion. Unique embroidered shells softly travel down a soft gown with a classical sweetheart neckline. Delicately ruffled shoulders unfurl into a striking fully-sequined bodice and delicate tulle skirt.
Women around the world have chosen to wear Elie Saab on their wedding day, from actress Debby Ryan to Lebanese influencer Lana El Sahely and Princess Stéphanie of Luxembourg. This Fall 2022 collection allows the bride’s timeless essence to shine and illuminate her forever moving femininity.
