He's known for his out of this world couture creations.
And Elie Saab's Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week show this afternoon proved why he's the go-to red carpet designer for celebrities such as Blake Lively, Rihanna and Hilary Swank.
The Lebanese designer specialises in oversized skirts, intricate embellishments and bold colours.
Elie Saab put on a breathtaking show at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week today, sending models down the runway in fairytale gowns and naked dresses such as this creation embellished with blue geometric flowers
The Lebanese designer showcased a very revealing dress with silver embellishment over a pair of nude briefs (left). He also put a stunning new twist on the jumpsuit with this lilac one piece with a dramatic train and matching jacket (right)

And while the Lebanese designer's show certainly ticked the first two boxes, he went for a more pared-back palette focusing on whismy pastels and glittering neutrals.
Expect to see plenty of today's naked dresses, which are wildly popular with stars who love to flash the flesh, on the red carpet very soon.
One showstopping creating featured nearly nude tulle embellished with blue geometric flowers over a flesh tone body suit.
While the designer's last Paris show featured big name models such as Karlie Kloss and Hailey Baldwin today's catwalk didn't have the same star power, allowing the clothes to take centre stage.
