From sculptural marble and bronzed brass to a private salon dedicated to personalised service, the Lebanese luxury House brings its world of couture-inspired elegance to India’s capital.

There are fashion Houses that dress a moment, and then there are those that become part of the moment itself. For years, ELIE SAAB has occupied a special place in India’s celebration wardrobe, its intricate embellishments, romantic silhouettes and occasionwear finding admirers at weddings and grand festivities. Now, that relationship takes a more permanent form.

In October 2026, the Lebanese luxury Maison opens its first boutique in India at DLF Emporio, New Delhi, marking a significant milestone in its relationship with the country’s luxury clientele. Spanning 161 square metres, the new address brings together the House’s ready-to-wear, perfumes, accessories and kidswear collections under one roof.

For a label whose aesthetic is synonymous with craftsmanship and a certain sense of occasion, the opening is more than a retail expansion. It is an invitation to experience the ELIE SAAB universe beyond the runway and the red carpet.

A Boutique That Reflects the Maison’s World

The new boutique translates the House’s distinctive visual language into an intimate retail setting, where material, light and craftsmanship come together with understated precision.

Drawing inspiration from the ELIE SAAB Maison collection, the interiors feature bespoke furnishings and wallpaper, complemented by white marble and bronzed brass. The palette creates a considered balance between contemporary refinement and the richness associated with the House’s design sensibility.

An illuminated ELIE SAAB monogram serves as a defining architectural feature, establishing a visual signature within the space. Elsewhere, a private salon offers a more intimate environment for personalised appointments and one-to-one service.

The emphasis is on an experience that feels considered at every level, allowing the collections and the surroundings to share the spotlight.

Beyond the Occasionwear Wardrobe

While ELIE SAAB has long resonated with Indian consumers through its couture and occasionwear, the New Delhi boutique presents a broader view of the Maison.

Ready-to-wear sits alongside perfumes and accessories, extending the House’s aesthetic into everyday dressing and personal expression. The inclusion of kidswear further broadens the offering, bringing its design language to a younger audience.

It is a curated expression of luxury that moves across categories while remaining anchored in the craftsmanship and visual identity for which the Maison is known.

A Longstanding Connection with India

India has been an important part of ELIE SAAB’s relationship with its international clientele, particularly through weddings, celebrations and other significant occasions where fashion becomes inseparable from personal milestones.

The House’s connection with New Delhi also extends into real estate through previous collaborations, reflecting a relationship with the city that reaches beyond clothing.

Opening a dedicated boutique at DLF Emporio builds on that history, offering Indian clients a direct point of access to the Maison’s collections and personalised retail experience.

New Delhi Joins the Global ELIE SAAB Map

The opening adds India to the Maison’s established international retail presence, which includes boutiques and flagship locations in fashion and luxury destinations such as Paris, Beirut, London, New York, Milan, Monaco, Dubai, Qatar, Abu Dhabi and Riyadh.

New Delhi’s position within India’s luxury retail landscape makes it a natural setting for the House’s first boutique in the country, bringing its collections closer to a clientele already familiar with its distinctive approach to glamour.

For ELIE SAAB, the opening marks a new chapter in a relationship shaped over years of celebrations and special occasions. For India’s luxury fashion landscape, it adds another international Maison to a retail destination where craftsmanship, design and personal expression continue to define the conversation.

Some fashion relationships begin with a dress. Others evolve into something more enduring. With its first Indian boutique, ELIE SAAB gives that connection a place to call home.
