Saab emphasized shirts that buttoned all the way up to the
collar worn with flap-pocket trousers or pencil skirts, and for
dresses, a fitted sheath or a V-neck with a pleated A-line skirt. The
models wore cross-body bags or carried big totes—Saab meant business. He
worked with strong, monochrome colors: royal blue, turquoise, raspberry
pink. Most of them were in a bold abstract print.
For evening, Saab's big idea was to sculpt dresses at the waist with
grosgrain. The look was graphic on an ivory column embroidered with dark
brown ribbons. He re-created the effect on sequined cocktail numbers
and gowns with geometric inserts of lace tracing the natural curves of
the body.
