Couture fashion brand ELIE SAAB Bridal presented its first ever catwalk at Barcelona Bridal Fashion Week 2023. We take a look at the stunningly whimsical SS24 collection ‘A Sense of Wonder’…

With a total of 30 outfits, eight of which were specially crafted for the occasion, the collection “A sense of wonder. Spring 2024” by ELIE SAAB lived up to expectations and further cemented ELIE SAAB as the ultimate player in aspirational and luxury bridal fashion.

Inspired by the blossoming kingdoms of Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai, the designs that graced the Barcelona Bridal Fashion Week runway transported the audience to an imagined universe of grace and serenity, ‘somewhere between heaven and earth’.

The Haute Couture Lebanese fashion house’s collection showcased fifteen elegant evanescent gowns, crafted with exquisite fabrics and elaborate floral details.

In contrast, the eight embroidered dresses created specifically for this momentous occasion are all about tighter silhouettes, with intricate and iridescent embellishments of sequins, pearls and feathers, enhancing the graceful, whimsical and soft femininity that is the essence of ELIE SAAB.

According to Elie Saab Jr, CEO of ELIE SAAB: “Walking the runway in Barcelona for the first time is a remarkable occasion for us just as presenting our collection “A sense of wonder” during Barcelona Bridal Fashion Week in an exclusive show is a real pleasure.

“We at ELIE SAAB are thrilled to celebrate bridal fashion as we continue to expand the growing expressions of the ELIE SAAB woman.”
