Subject: Abed Mouhfez Gowns Author: Aiden* [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 04:22:04 06/22/09 Mon Author Host/IP: CPE0060673d3213-CM001ac3151f02.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com/99.244.253.217 Here are some gowns by Lebanese haute couture designer Abed Mahfouz. I think these would suit Elham perfectly and would look spectacular on stage! 15. Turquoise blue would look amazing on Elham. The one-shoulder design is also amazing and there is just enough beading to sparkle. 34. This is a soft pink version of Dayana Mendoza's dress from last year except there is more beading. The skirt would look fantastic if the wearer were to spin and the exposed top would show off Elham's shoulders and arms nicely. 37. This is something that Ines would choose for her Miss Japans. This dress is so refreshing and unique. The metallic bodice adds modernity to the beaded flower print and yellow silk chiffon. Again, the skirt is flowing so the wearer can play with it and show it off as she spins/turns. Talk about colour! The Caribbean audience/prelim judges would love this one. 41. This is a Miss Universe dress. Liquid beading in metallic silver and gold. If Elham can get this from Abed Mahfouz then I think she'll win the preliminary gown competition!

Subject Author Date Does Face2Face have any association with Abed Mahfouz? I know they have connections with several Lebanese designers. (NT) Aiden* 07:43:32 06/22/09 Mon thanks aiden the Turquoise blue is perfect also the pink one both are great for elham i remember one miss lebanon wore his gowns i forget her name back when MU was in lA her gowns were horrible lord she had his worest gowns but i love the forst 2 gowns u post very modern and stylish (NT) lorra 08:38:11 06/22/09 Mon i think it was Gabriel Borashed with that awful short white dress! But i don't think it was Abed Mahfouz's design (NT) -- fan-man, 14:37:25 06/22/09 Mon I believe Nadine Njeim wore an Ellie Saab at Miss Universe 2005. She even wore a big white designer watch with her dress. (NT) -- Aiden*, 05:51:06 06/23/09 Tue Nadine's gown from 2005. (NT) -- - Aiden*, 05:53:08 06/23/09 Tue I love Elie Saab, but this gown was so wrong for Nadine! It made her look bigger and the hairstyle didnt work for it too, the watch was too much in my opinion, I think if she had her hair up, lost the watch, would have been more perfect! (NT) -- fan-man, 22:37:31 06/23/09 Tue How about a glamorous princess gown? Egypt never went with that look and it would stand out nowadays. I posted one here b4 that fan-man liked (black and white worn by Miss Algeria France). Miss France 2009 contestants also wore gorgeous ones at their pageant finale, have a look at those :) (NT) Fan 19:15:59 06/22/09 Mon I also love ball gowns and I hope they make a huge comeback at Miss Universe one day. Here's a wedding gown from George Chakra's Fall 2008 collection. Remove the veil and the gloves and the gown is awesome for a pageant! (NT) -- - Aiden*, 05:43:19 06/23/09 Tue this dress is fierce, it takes a very confident woman to pull it out in Miss Universe, it could be a crown teaser or a total loss!! I like the challange! (NT) -- fan-man, 22:42:42 06/23/09 Tue Oh, I remember that gown it was so pretty! but Im not sure if its Miss Universe material, it would definately fit the large white stage of Miss World! (NT) -- fan-man, 22:41:14 06/23/09 Tue you know even thought all these gown are pretty still i think elham looked her best in that white pinkesh gown it suit her more she looked more a diva in it so i think it will be the best if she has somthing like that gown if not the same gown (NT) lorra 20:52:50 06/23/09 Tue Totally agree! (NT) -- fan-man, 22:43:22 06/23/09 Tue I also think she looks great in that soft pink gown. It looks fabulous on her. However, lately at Miss Universe, there seems to be more focus on the dress rather than on "elegance" and "poise". Miss Colombia and Miss Venezuela's gowns last year were not the prettiest on them (they would have looked much better wearing other dresses in my opinion) yet, they were so theatrical that they scored 1st and 2nd in the gown competition respectively. Sometimes theatrics can sway a judge and in the Caribbean, fashion theatrics is what they are all about. (NT) -- Aiden*, 04:56:55 06/24/09 Wed I really like No. 34 and No. 41, No.37 looks like something that Miss Japan would wear with the colors and the cut! (NT) fan-man 22:44:26 06/23/09 Tue
