The collaborations keep coming from couturier Elie Saab, who has just revealed his latest link up, a first luxury branded residence in Azerbaijan.
The Lebanese fashion designer inked the deal with Sabah Investment Group, in a joint venture with Reportage Group, the leading private real estate developer in the UAE. The news comes two days after Elie Saab announced that he will design a customised Global 8000 private jet for Bombardier.
Saab’s up-market Azerbaijan residence will be located within the prestigious Sea Breeze community, overlooking the Caspian Sea. Titled Panorama by Elie Saab, the project marks an important step in the brand’s global expansion within the branded real estate sector, bringing exceptional design to one of the region’s most promising luxury destinations.
The development combines Sabah Investment Group’s regional expertise and Reportage Group’ international real estate experience with the refined interior design and aesthetic direction of Elie Saab Maison, featuring bespoke furniture and decor pieces crafted in Italy and developed under the creative collaboration between Elie Saab and Carlo Colombo, under license by Corporate Brand – A++ Group.
Orkhan Mustafayev, chairman of Sabah Investment Group, commented: “By combining Elie Saab’s signature elegance with our proven expertise, we are proud to bring a world-class development that positions Azerbaijan alongside the most prestigious destinations worldwide.”
With 582 residences, the project offers a curated mix of one- and two-bedroom apartments, spacious four-bedroom duplex units, and a signature penthouse. Select units are also available fully furnished with bespoke Elie Saab Maison pieces, offering residents a seamless move-in experience.
A penthouse will crown the development with sweeping views over Sea Breeze and the iconic Ribbon Tower, featuring an indoor fireplace, a generous terrace, and interiors designed by Saab.
“As we continue to expand the global footprint of the Elie Saab brand, we remain committed to building strategic partnerships that embody our design philosophy and bring our lifestyle vision to life. Our collaboration with Sabah Investment Group and Reportage Group marks a significant milestone as we introduce a new real estate project on the shores of the Caspian Sea,” said Elie Saab Jr., Elie Saab Group CEO.
Panorama by Elie Saab offers a complete lifestyle experience with a full suite of amenities, including lounges, a business centre, fitness facilities, a private spa, infinity pools, a children’s play area, a squash court, table tennis, and a dedicated aquatics centre. The community is complemented by neighbourhood retail and dining options, creating a seamless and contemporary living environment. While the common areas feature furniture and decor selected from the Elie Saab Maison collection.
“Our mission has always been to offer quality, accessible housing solutions that stand the test of time. Through our branded collaboration with Elie Saab and our partnership with Sabah Investment Group, we are delivering communities that merge international design standards with local aspirations, giving every resident the opportunity to truly own their story,” said Andrea Nucera, CEO and managing director of Reportage Group.

Traditional and occasion wear designer Puneet Gupta has stepped into the world of fine jewellery with the launch of ‘Deco Luméaura,’ a collection designed to blend heritage and contemporary aesthetics while taking inspiration from the dramatic landscapes of Ladakh.
“For me, Deco Luméaura is an exploration of transformation- of material, of story, of self,” said Puneet Gupta in a press release. “True luxury isn’t perfect; it is intentional. Every piece is crafted to be lived with and passed on.”
The jewellery collection features cocktail rings, bangles, chokers, necklaces, and statement evening bags made in recycled brass and finished with 24 carat gold. The stones used have been kept natural to highlight their imperfect and unique forms and each piece in the collection has been hammered, polished, and engraved by hand.
Designed to function as wearable art pieces, the colourful jewellery echoes the geometry of Art Deco while incorporating distinctly South Asian imagery such as camels, butterflies, and tassels. Gupta divides his time between his stores in Hyderabad and Delhi and aims to bring Indian artistry to a global audience while crafting a dialogue between designer and artisan.
