Lebanon’s Georges Hobeika Release Bridal Collection Wrapped in Romance
The Lebanese couturier draws inspiration from the home of the iconic French painter, Claude Monet, and the romantic essence of his work in this Fall 2025 collection.
With 19 years of experience in the fashion industry, Lebanese designer Georges Hobeika is celebrated for his refined craftsmanship and elegant aesthetics. From luxurious couture gowns to romantic ready-to-wear pieces, Hobeika’s work draws from the intricate patterns of nature and the rich cultural heritage of the Middle East. His latest bridal collection for fall highlights his signature use of delicate fabrics like chiffon and lace, enhanced by ethereal silhouettes and meticulous embroidery. This collection pays homage to timeless beauty and classic bridal forms, offering fresh interpretations grounded in tradition, while celebrating the art of bridal couture.
The Muse:
Inspired by French painter Claude Monet, Hobeika found particular resonance in Monet’s gardens at Giverny, where the artist lived and worked for over four decades. Hobeika channels the serene beauty of Monet’s surroundings into wearable art for the contemporary bride, drawing on the soft pastels and cream tones of blooming petals. The collection’s flowing silhouettes, detailed floral appliqués, and gentle draping reflect the interplay between nature and elegance, creating a sense of movement akin to the breeze in Monet’s gardens. This quiet romance honours the natural world while infusing the gowns with a painterly grace.
The Collection Dissected:
The tranquillity of Monet’s work is reimagined in this collection, rich with embroidery and three-dimensional embellishments that capture the poetry of nature. Inspired by some of Monet’s favourite flowers—lavender, roses, bay leaves, star jasmine, and bougainvillaea—these botanical elements are interpreted through lace, intricate embroidery, and embossed fabrics. The cinched waists and sculpted silhouettes evoke the understated majesty of the French Grand Siècle, elongating the figure and lending the collection a regal air. The bodices offer a contemporary twist on stately elegance, while the flowing gowns enhance a sense of effortless movement.
The Collection in Three Words: Elegant, romantic, timeless.
Where to Wear It:
A wedding in the South of France, at a romantic venue like Château de Pennautier, surrounded by vineyards. With lush floral arrangements and opulent drapery, the golden hues of the setting sun would highlight the château’s grandeur, complimenting your gown’s subtle sophistication.
How to Style It:
The collection’s romantic and dreamy tone calls for simple yet refined accessories. The gowns can be paired with delicate lace heels, understated jewellery, and a satin-encrusted bag. The minimalist approach to styling lets the gown speak for itself, with a focus on elegance rather than practicality—because, on a wedding day, convenience need not be a priority.

The Collection’s Stand-Out Pieces:
This honey-infused, eggshell cream wedding dress offers a warmer, more inviting alternative to traditional stark white gowns. Its shimmering sequins, arranged in a subtle floral pattern, and strapless silhouette create a graceful and flattering figure.
The Verdict:
Hobeika’s collection remains true to his signature style, blending Lebanese influences with intricate embroidery and embellishments, while incorporating a touch of French romance. The sculpted, contoured silhouettes evoke a sense of quiet majesty, reminiscent of 17th-century France, but remain modern in their understated elegance.
