“BUTTERFLY OF PARADISE”
For his second Couture collection presented at Westin hotel in Paris, Ziad Nakad offers his own vision of a universal garden where butterflies and flowers are the main symbols of his inspiration.
Tradition and modernity combine to each silhouette giving the appearance of a sparkling bouquet of summer flowers.
Laser cutting, three – dimensional shapes and sophisticated insertion of embroidery are a reminiscent of the butterfly structure and its extreme delicacy.
Its metamorphoses appear through various cuts; wide or narrow, short or long or even asymmetrical for an audacity touch.
The color range is mainly pastel: salmon pink, sky blue, shiny gray and it also evokes the color of honey.
Belts accompany some dresses to assert the size. Set with jewelry or bronze in shapes of butterflies embroidered with Swarovski stones.
The handbags as well complement the silhouettes.
In this marvelous garden, a fabulous bride appears in an astonishing dress with a volume entirely embroidered with embossed butterflies.
For this collection, Ziad NAKAD remains faithful to his vision of elegance where technicality and attention to detail are the key words of his work and know-how.

“A very simple, very pure momentum. Romanticism, but without any flourishes,“ is how Viard described her designs.
Evoking French film director Claude Chabrol’s 1968 film “The Does,” a lesbian drama, female models walked the runway together and chatted like intimates in the first looks. The models wore stylish retro black leather boots, ones with a brandy bell-shaped collar at the mid-calf that became the collection’s leitmotif.
Viard’s simplest designs were the most effective: A black silk bodice dress with the top lobbed off and dropped Juliette sleeves. Modeled by Cindy Crawford’s daughter, Kaia Gerber, it had guests clicking their cameras. And voluminous studded jodhpurs that opened up at the bottom cut a beautiful silhouette. This design, Viard said in a touching detail, was an homage to Lagerfeld’s personal style. Another simple garment, a loose wool jacket in Chanel’s emblematic pink with a soft-spiky collar, was a high point.
Yet, a drawback of the tasteful showing were some of the overly flashy gold chains and costume jewellery that often distracted the eye from the show’s central aesthetic.
BTS member Jin’s VVIP Hyundai Black credit card – used to splurge on band dinners, Givenchy clothes and exotic pets
Big Hit Entertainment’s October IPO made BTS even richer, and the K-pop boy band’s eldest member – who turns 28 on December 4 – spends his US$20 million fortune on his sugar glider pets Eomuk, Odeng and Gukmul, owns a Japanese restaurant and even bought a US$3.7 million apartment for his parent
With the phenomenal international success they’ve achieved, BTS is surely one of the richest outfits to emerge from the global K-pop boom. And since being gifted shares in their parent company Big Hit Entertainment – which raised US$822 million in an IPO in October 2020, valuing the whole company at US$4.1 billion – the seven talented boys are now richer than ever
The boy band’s border-breaking success – BTS are the first Asian act to amass 5 billion streams on Spotify – has brought huge financial gains, and not just for them. In 2019, the group reportedly brought in US$4.65 billion to the South Korean economy through physical album sales, concert tickets and merchandise. According to Celebrity Net Worth, BTS also earned US$170 million from touring and promoting their music.
The band’s oldest member Jin turns just 28 years old on December 4. As he celebrates his birthday, we look at 5 of his biggest achievements
