Zuhair Murad's Gypsy Chic Paris Couture Runway

Dark and mysterious, Zuhair Murad's sultry and powerful collection stuns at the prestigious Grand Palais. A season like no other, this year's strong runway wowed a full-house as the models strided down in lust-worthy high boots and caged heels. Must-have wide-brim hats set the tone as this Autumn 2016 season took hold, invoking a sense of rock attitude, feminine beauty and romanticism - think Casablanca meets Grimm Fairytales. Boho gypsy chic was the vibe, full of velvet capes, sparkling transparency, tattoo ornamentation, Chantilly lace with stunning injections of Klimt print and patterened embroidery. With Queen's power ballad Bohemian Rhapsody as the soundtrack to this hippie luxe collection, there was no doubt that this master couturier has serious edge. All in all, Murad's wow-worthy shows never fail to leave us wondering...is this the real life, or is this just fantasy?!
