Paris Haute Couture | January 2024

Zuhair Murad's Spring 2024 Haute Couture collection, titled "A Tyrian Arabesque," unveiled during Paris Haute Couture Week in January 2024, paid homage to the ancient Phoenician civilization. Drawing inspiration from the Phoenicians' maritime legacy and Greco-Roman influences, Murad presented a series of gowns that combined flowing drapery with intricate embellishments. Luxurious fabrics such as chiffon, satin, and charmeuse were adorned with beaded fringes, cascading chains, and metallic accents, evoking the movement of waves and the treasures of sea voyages. The color palette featured Mediterranean hues—faded reds reminiscent of amphorae wine, deep greens symbolizing olives, and shimmering metallics reflecting ancient craftsmanship
