Elie Saab and Borsalino Unite for Exclusive Capsule Collection
In a remarkable collaboration, Elie Saab and Borsalino have joined forces to create a captivating capsule collection. These two iconic names in the fashion industry have combined their expertise to reimagine the classic felt hat, infusing it with a touch of refined elegance and femininity.
The standout piece of this partnership is the ‘Nila’ hat, a slightly larger and more luxurious version of the timeless Borsalino hat. It features a ribbon adorned with Elie Saab’s exquisite gold jeweled monogram, and is available in three enchanting shades: powder pink, white, and black. The ‘Nila’ hat can be acquired for 590 euros and is accessible through both brands’ boutiques and e-commerce platforms.
This exciting «Borsalino x Elie Saab» capsule collection represents a significant addition to the accessories lineup of the Lebanese fashion house. Elie Saab Jr., the group’s managing director, noted that this collaboration seamlessly extends their accessory collection to meet the evolving desires and expectations of their discerning clientele.
Collaborations have emerged as a strategic avenue for expanding the brand’s influence. In the previous year, Elie Saab made a successful foray into lingerie with a collection created in partnership with Aubade. Furthermore, the brand has diversified its portfolio by entering the interior design sector with a house line and ventured into real estate, designing luxury residences in collaboration with Gulf Islamic Investments (GII).
Elie Saab’s global footprint continues to expand, with recent additions including a boutique in Monaco and a new flagship store in the Middle East, marking the third such store in the Gulf region within the past year. These flagship locations are strategically positioned in major fashion capitals, encompassing Paris, Beirut, New York, London, and Milan.
Meanwhile, Borsalino is actively pursuing collaborations to elevate its profile and solidify its position in the luxury fashion landscape. Guided by the creative direction of Jacopo Politi, the milliner has curated collections for esteemed brands such as Chloé, AMI Paris, and Vilebrequin, reinforcing its status as a prominent player in the world of luxury fashion.
