Georges Hobeika Fall/Winter 2025-26
"The New Order"
Couture is always shown months ahead of the season it belongs to. Georges Hobeika presented his Fall/Winter 2025-26 collection back in July during Paris Couture Week, but now, as September edges into October, its relevance is sharper than ever. With autumn settling in, the themes he explored — serenity, balance, and beauty in the middle of chaos — feel like exactly what we want from fashion right now.
Georges Hobeika is one of Lebanon's most renowned couturiers, a designer who opened his first atelier in Beirut in 1995 before making Paris a second home for the house. Over the past three decades, he has become known for craftsmanship rooted in embroidery and detail, creating gowns that balance refinement with emotion.
Today, he designs alongside his son Jad, blending the heritage of haute couture with a younger, modern perspective. The Fall/Winter 2025-26 season marks thirty years of the house, and the show carried the weight of that milestone.
The collection was titled The New Order and, according to Hobeika, was meant to leave guests with a feeling of calm and serenity — a reminder of what inner peace means.
We are in a moment where everything is fast: fast fashion, fast trends, fast attention. The New Order pushes back. It says: slow down. Notice the handwork. Feel calm. In his interview, Hobeika wants guests to feel calm and inner peace. That is such a bold aim in a chaotic time.

Georges Hobeika: The house's heritage
What began as an atelier in war-torn Beirut has evolved into a maison that bridges continents. Hobeika's path to couture was unconventional — he studied civil engineering and architecture before fashion claimed him entirely. His technical background shows in the precision of his work: every pleat calculated, every bead placed with intention. The house has grown to include not just haute couture, but bridal collections and ready-to-wear, all while maintaining the meticulous hand-finishing that has become his signature.

A new order, an old promise
In a world obsessed with speed, Georges Hobeika reminds us that true beauty takes time. Thirty years of craftsmanship, of hand-stitched dreams, of refusing to compromise on detail — that is the real new order. Not the one dictated by trends, but the one built stitch by stitch, season after season, with patience and intention.
