Taking over Riyadh on Wednesday night, 1001 Seasons of Elie Saab was a stunning, star-studded event as Lebanese couturier Elie Saab presented a spectacular fashion show celebrating 45 remarkable years of his eponymous maison.
Held at The Venue during the annual Riyadh Season winter entertainment festival, 1001 Seasons of Elie Saab unveiled a collection of 300 exquisite creations. The Riyadh Season Collection for Fall 2025 was designed exclusively for the event, drawing inspiration from the classic Arab folk tales of One Thousand and One Nights.
