Welcome to the wonderful world of Lebanese designer Georges Hobeika, who presented his Haute Couture Autumn Winter 2016 2017 collection at Paris Fashion Week Haute Couture. <\/strong><\/p>\n

This show takes glamour, luxury and enchantment to a whole new level. Georges Hobeika is the “good fairy” with the magic wand that turns the women who wear his dresses into veritable creatures out of a fantastic fairy tale. The silhouettes of mermaids emerge not from the water, but from an ocean of flowers and light. <\/p>\n

Pastel colors dominate the background: blue, pink, ivory, a powdery palette, pearl gray, invaded by sumptuous floral embroideries composed like veritable, artistically elaborate bouquets of flowers. It’s a festival of luxurious fabrics: silk, satin, tulle, chiffon, organza, gazar, and a veritable explosion of embroidery and Swarovski crystals. <\/p>\n

The designer is also very fond of the little bow, sometimes with a crystal in the center, 50s-style. Head jewels play an important role in the composition of the outfit, as do small bags, all embroidered to match the dress. The pumps also feature a subtle, refined floral touch, with a floral strap. Some sheath dresses are entirely covered with flowers made of embroidery, rajouts and multicolored pearls, while others are decorated with a cascade of flowers in frosted ivory or pearl-gray tones, reminiscent of winter ice cream but treated in a luminous, sparkling way. <\/p>\n

Many bustiers in “nude” lace, embroidered with long flowery stems, with the occasional dragonfly here and there, play with transparency. A series of models offer more fluid, streamlined styles for long dresses in silky materials. We also note the elegance and refinement of certain models featuring a garland of little bows, sometimes with wide front or side slits. <\/p>\n

Then purple, violet, deep red and green colors appear, embroidered with long cascades of pearls and crystals reminiscent of frosty winter landscapes. Two bridal gowns: one short and one long, very Oriental in inspiration, round off the show. It’s truly a fashion show that takes us into a world of dreams, a fairytale universe between the glittering ice of winter, a floral explosion and the magic of a firework display of color and light. <\/p>\n\n\t\t
