Lebanese designer Georges Hobeika delivered the hits of his design aesthetic, mainly focusing on a muted colour palette featuring elegant embroidery and classic shapes.

Unconventionally he opened with an chic suit featuring a corseted silk jacket paired with shimmering trousers with a relax fit.

This was followed by a series of pastel gowns decorated in intricate embroidery and embellishment, before he introduced a series of baroque lace and fuller skirts.

The final looks were the familiar display of voluminous drama, layers of decadent fabric and of course an exquisite wedding gown enchanted with gold embroidery and beading.

Hobeika keeps to the classic codes of Haute Couture, but there were youthful elements which would appeal to those who are making their first steps into this fine world of fashion.
