Spring 2025 Haute Couture: Zuhair Murad's Tropical Escape

nd rich floral and foliage appliques.

Lebanese couturier Zuhair Murad dreamed of tropical islands and produced a collection full of colours and rich floral and foliage appliques including Palm fronds, frangipane and hibiscus shapes.

Eschewing large ballgowns, his silhouettes were generally slimmer than usual, with the designer incorporating a few tulip-shaped skirts that added a youthful note to the glamorous collection. Corsets elongated like inverted petals, supporting delicate, blooming folds. Drapes unfurl around the body, while carefree bows adorned silhouettes and hair

Hints of the 1960s weave through the collection, alongside fleeting echoes of Hollywood’s golden age, infusing the designs with a nostalgic yet timeless charm.
