6 Reasons to love Zuhair Murad Haute Couture FW15

Stars, stars, stars. Zuhair Murad went up to the universe and pulled down the galaxy as the fabrics of his dresses in wine red, teal green, indigo, white, dark blue...

Can the photos do enough talking? No, not for Zuhair Murad's haute couture gowns. It's the flow and movement of the dresses, the sparkles, the fine craftsmanship that you need to see. I've summed up 6 reasons to love Zuhair Murad Haute Couture FW15.

FIRST. Sparkling Stripes.

This might look like just a piece of red wine dress with striped sparkles at the bottom part of the dress, you couldn't imagine how spectacular the sparkling stripes work until you see how it moves.

It grabs attention, a lot of attention, my eyes are blurry now.

SECOND. Dancing Queens ABBA

The first thing popped out in my head when I saw these beautiful jumpsuits was ABBA's live performance on stage.

ABBA performing on the stage during 1974.

I hope they wear Zuhair Murad if they are still performing today, because these jumpsuits are just like made for them. If you are ABBA fans, it's not hard for you to imagine them wearing these jumpsuits while singing Dancing Queen on the stage.

THREE. Taylor Swift walked the show

There is a model who looks like Taylor Swift in the show.

Could it be a hint from Zuhair Murad that Taylor is wearing this soon?

Or Taylor is one of Zuhair Murad's imaginary clients (given the fact that Zuhair Murad often imagined the designs for his imaginary clients when he was small, not sure if he still does this now)?

Or unexcitingly, it is just a coincidence, it is just a model who looks like Taylor is walking Zuhair Murad's show.

FOUR. The Sight of The Back

Not only the front sight of the dresses are breathtakingly beautiful, the back part are elegant, classy, unique and look very princess as well.

Godddddd

FIVE. The Queen of the Galaxy

It makes you feel like a Queen who owns planets as your different homes and stars as your little friends, just like the relationship between Cinderella and the cute little mice.

Just kneel down, don't even speak. Let the magic begins.

SIX. Zuhair Murad is a self-taught designer.

If you google his name, people often introduce him as a designer who dressed stars like Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Jennifer Lopez (the first famous client who made him popular overnight), Beyonce Knowles, Florence Welch, and Princess Amira Al-Taweel of Saudi Arabia, even most of the fashion reports for each collection would not forget to state who are his clients over and over again.

Little attention has been paid on how talented he is as a SELF-TAUGHT designer who learned to design by reading many books without formal education and spending all day sketching dresses since he was small. People often define how successful a designer is by looking at his/her client portfolio. However, it is always worth the effort to see beyond that-- what makes the designs to standout, the making process, the inspirations behind the collection, the silhouette, his/her spirits, attitude, views that are more inspiring and interesting.

Even without those star clients, he is undoubtedly a great and successful designer who wants to make women feel glamorous, confident and unique.
