The Lebanese designer Elie Saab, who has clothed royalty and Hollywood celebrities, is surprisingly modest about his own looks. He makes fun of his plain black leather jacket in his dimly lit Parisian atelier, which stands in sharp contrast to the stunning dresses he designs. But from nothing, this "simple man" has created a multimillion-dollar fashion company.

Elie Saab began making garments for his sisters at the age of nine, and at the age of seventeen, during the civil war in Lebanon, he opened his first studio. His haute couture designs, which start at $12,000, are now seen on red carpets all over the world. From Queen Rania to Angelina Jolie, his creations have come to represent sophistication and wealth.
