Sultry Silhouettes of Zuhair Murad

Zuhair Murad

All I can think to say about this absolutely, positively gorgeous collection from Zuhair Murad is…it’s WOW!. Seriously WOW. Not all the pieces are meant to be for typical wedding dresses. But if you ask me, I would say they're pretty much what any bride wants to wear on their special day. Zuhair Murad, my favourite Lebanese fashion designer – his creations are known for their sensational colours, extraordinary fabrics and flattering fit on the female form.

One shoulder wedding dress with gold belt, such a gorgeous combination!

What I like about Zuhair Murad is that he always stays true to his niche. His designer talent is best expressed in evening and red-carpet-ready outfits, dresses in particular. Rich colours, beautiful feminine designs and intricate detailing make the Fall 2011 Couture collection by Zuhair Murad unforgettable. Floor-length dresses look just perfect.

I have to admit his creations are reminiscent of Egyptian princesses, the sultry silhouettes of the dresses. This is what I love about Middle Eastern designers, the designs exude confidence and the women they designed for are not afraid to get dressed.

This strapless sweetheart neckline dress with metallic gold accents, reminds me of Marchesa gown worn by Olivia Wilde at the 2011 Golden Globes.

Each piece has a life of it’s own and can be worn alone or with your favourite accessories.

Can you get enough with this?

Murad’s Fall Winter 2011 couture collection is a gorgeous mix of classical elements mixed with modern detailing. Each piece has a life of it’s own and can be worn alone or with your favourite accessories. And as amazing as his haute couture work is, his ready to wear collection is just as fab.
