We are delighted to announce that AKEL Couture, founded by designer Zoriana Semeniuk, will unveil its new collection Lumière de Cristal at Paris Fashion Days, taking place on October 1, 2026, at Hôtel Le Marois.
«Lumière de Cristal» — a new couture collection exploring light, movement and sculptural craftsmanship through luminous organza and crystal embellishment
The collection brings together sculptural corsetry, asymmetric constructions, cascading tiers, structured peplums, dramatic trains and architectural volumes. Each silhouette is developed individually, creating a collection built on contrast rather than repetition. Crystal embellishment becomes one of the defining signatures of Lumière de Cristal.
The color palette moves through pearl, champagne, blush, icy lavender, aqua blue, silver-grey and deep midnight tones. Combined with the reflective quality of the organza, these shades create a constantly changing play of light across the runway.
«Lumière de Cristal» is a study of transformation — of fabric into movement, crystal into light and couture into emotion.
The collection reflects AKEL Couture’s vision of contemporary couture: expressive, architectural and created to be remembered.
