Saiid Kobeisy embroidered dresses: placed, fully embroidered and beaded, by season

Posted by author-avatar

Embroidery is what a Saiid Kobeisy dress costs and what it is for. The house does it two ways. The usual way is placed: a line of embroidery traced along the bodice, the shoulder, the waist and the hem, with the crepe and tulle visible around it, so the dress reads as a silhouette with a drawing on it. The other way is what the house calls fully embroidered, the whole surface worked, on the gowns for the biggest evenings. On the couture, Haute Couture News reports, the hand embroidery takes about three months a piece; the ready-to-wear carries the same motifs at a production pace. Coveti has 118 embroidered and beaded dresses on 20 September 2026, from $490 to $16,075, and this page lists 15 by season.

For Passage Privé, the Fall Winter 2026 couture collection, the designer “draws inspiration from the elegance and cultural richness of the early twentieth century,” Tatiana Stolyarova wrote for Haute Couture News on 3 August 2026, noting that the house was “founded in Beirut in 2000” and now runs “couture, bridal and ready-to-wear collections” from Paris, Dubai, Riyadh and Beirut.

Key facts

  • Placed embroidery: a line along the bodice, shoulder, waist and hem with the ground fabric visible; the more common treatment and the more wearable
  • Fully embroidered: the whole surface worked, on the gowns for a gala; the most expensive pieces in the range
  • Beading: the Fall Winter 2025 tulle gowns and the 2023 polka-dot tulle, stitched, never glued
  • Thread colours follow the season: multicolour on Spring Summer 2026 crepe, light gold and silver on Fall Winter 2025 tulle, off-white on Jet Black
  • The embroidery is the jewellery: wear the ear and the neck bare and match the metal of the shoe to the thread

Placed and fully embroidered

Choose placed embroidery for a dress that will be worn more than once, because the fabric around the work lets the dress change with the accessories. Choose a fully embroidered gown for the single evening that will be photographed. Both take a specialist cleaner who is told the work is stitched, and both are stored so nothing presses on the embroidery. Fabrics and care has the care rules and Real versus fake shows how to read the reverse of the embroidery, which is where a copy gives itself away.
