Krikor Jabotian Couture Spring/Summer 2014

Officially rising to the top of my list of favourite couturiers is Krikor Jabotian. The more I view his designs, the more spellbound I am by his intricate detailing and ability to churn lifeless pieces of fabric into breathtaking pieces of art. Krikor's approach to couture is unlike any other, he engineers unique three-dimensional silhouettes that impress at every angle.

For Spring/Summer 2014 the Lebanese designer presents an exquisite range entitled 'AkhTamar', the romantic yet tragic love story of a princess called Tamar. She is dressed in a passionate cherry red, palest blush pink, ornate ivory and the purest white. Decadent metallic gold thread is embroidered across the dresses, forming elaborate rococo motifs. High-low hemlines are amplified by volume, necklines are kept demurely high and a labyrinth of tulle and chiffon pleated layers create ethereal waterfall skirts. Luminescent crystals are regally dusted upon the caped gowns, with Grecian inspired headpieces that add to the opulence of the collection.

Dresses magical enough to dream up your own exotic fairytale, this is Krikor Jabotian's Spring/Summer 2014 Haute Couture Collection.
