Lebanese designer Elie Saab was the first celebrity to take home the prestigious Walk of fame. He has now collaborated with Emaar to design the interiors for ‘Emaar Beachfront’.
A well-known name in the fashion industry ever since the 1980s, Elie Saab started his career as a bridal-wear designer in Beirut. He also became the first Lebanese designer to design for the Oscars in 2002. Today, Elie Saab designs clothes for A-listers like Beyonce, Nicole Kidman, Angelina Jolie and others.
And now, Saab has decided to move away from fashion and has struck a deal with Emaar. He will now design the interiors of Emaar’s upcoming residential project- ‘Emaar Beachfront’. The exclusive community caters to give residents state-of-the-art facilities complete with the latest amenities.
Dubai’s Walk of Fame will feature 10,000 stars in total. However, only 400 stars will be revealed this October, ahead of its official launch.
