Thanks for the kind words @interior.monologue

Most people know her for her elegant bridal collection, but I became obsessed with Reem Acra for her markedly unique and amazing embroidery. Practically every piece she makes is covered in the most intricate beading and needle work, bringing together ancient craft with sleek contemporary silhouettes. To me, she's the perfect mix of insane over-the-top detail, and timelessly chic elegance.

And I'm not the only one to gush about Reem. In fact, she was first noticed back in her university days in Beirut when a fashion editor admired the dress she was wearing. As it turned out, Reem had made that dress out of an old table cloth from her mother, with the embroidery skills passed down by her grandmother. She was offered her first show after that.

Soon after Reem left her native Lebanon to follow her passion, which lead her to studying at New York's Fashion Institute of Technology, and École Supérieure des Arts et Techniques de la Mode in Paris, before finally settling back in New York in 1986, where she began working for other lines, and even doing some interior design. It wasn't until 1997 that she got her first real break, which came in the form of a friendly wager. As fashion-lore has it, Reem had a high-society friend who'd recently met a very fine suitor. Reem told her that she just had to marry this man, and she agreed, with the stipulation that Reem would have to make her wedding dress.
