Elie Saab, Drapemaster

If you've ever seen a dress in the Elie Saab collection, you've seen perfection. Aside from the fact that the Man pays exquisite attention to detail down to the last pearl, sequin, and flower...the drape and fit of each dress is nothing short of flawless. As most of you know, male designers do not always design for the true shape of a woman. Instead, they create collections that draw inspiration from idealism and fantasy figures, rather than real life silhouettes. Elie Saab is an entirely different kind of man. He understands the curves of the waist, the swing of the hips, and knows exactly how to feature them. I have looked at every one of his collections repeatedly, both RTW and Couture, and am always hard pressed to find even one that isn't incredibly stunning. They are truly all breathtaking works of art.

Below are just a few of my favorites from his Spring 12 RTW collection...try and not drool, I dare you.
