Beirut Chasing a Dream is the name of Elie Saab’s Spring/Summer 2015 collection that he showcased yesterday in Paris.
It’s through the magical voice of Lebanese legend Fairuz that Saab dedicated the collection to his beautiful hometown, Beirut. Through all the success and fame Saab never forgot where he came from and Beirut was always a source of inspiration to the international designer.
Saab also described his collection on his website saying : "A beautiful memory of Beirut often visits me in a dream. A loving, giving and tolerant Beirut. A glamorous one too. A beautiful memory that never ceased to inspire me - that inspired this collection. This is a tribute to the city that I love. My Beirut. Looking back at the eventful history of Lebanon, through its flourishing periods and its downfalls, I feel hopeful, I feel grateful. "
