On October 22, 2026, the joint ELIE SAAB x H&M collection will launch in H&M stores and online channels. Lebanese designer Elie Saab and the Swedish brand have combined the couturier's signature evening aesthetic with everyday wardrobe pieces: the lineup includes women's and men's clothing, accessories, and a limited-edition wedding dress featuring a unique veil.
Evening Aesthetics and Everyday Wardrobe
The lineup spans a wide range of categories: long evening gowns, suits, leather goods, knitwear, and pieces featuring lace, sequins, and hand-draping. At the same time, the collection is not limited to special-event outfits—it includes classic black trousers, coats, tops, skirts, lace sets, a cardigan with a tank top, and a brown piece with beaded embroidery on the shoulders. This approach brings Saab's recognizable handwriting into the daily wardrobe.
Key Pieces and Color Transitions
Among the standout works are a long green dress with a high slit and gradient, a black sculptural gown with a train and a large bow at the waist, and a gold strapless design with black and gold sequins. A characteristic detail of the entire lineup is a smooth color transition: black is paired with green, brown, and gold, which can be seen in both the evening wear and the everyday pencil skirts and bomber jacket.
Men's Line and Accessories
The men's part of the collection features silk shirts and trousers, a black wool blazer with satin lapels, classic trousers, a white shirt, and a t-shirt. Accessories continue the collaborative aesthetic: earrings, scarves, lace gloves, slim belts, bags, as well as crocodile-effect footwear, platform shoes, and monogram slingbacks.
Limited-Edition Wedding Dress
A special place in the lineup is taken by a wedding dress reminiscent of the beginning of Saab's career, who gained recognition partly thanks to bridal wear. The model features a corset, off-the-shoulder styling, and a long train; the translucent insert is decorated with bead and sequin embroidery, and the look is completed by a long veil with hand-made floral embroidery and beads. This is the only full bridal look in the collection, and the dress with the veil is planned for a limited release of 300 copies.
Pricing and Availability
Prices for items start from 1999 Ukrainian hryvnias, while the cost of individual dresses reaches nearly 23 thousand hryvnias. According to the designer himself, the collection aligns with the brand's identity: «a balance between structure and fluidity, a sense of lightness, and richness of adornment. For me, elegance is personal.» The ELIE SAAB x H&M collection will go on sale on October 22, 2026, in stores and online.
