Elie Saab — One Monte-Carlo
The house's first permanent boutique in Monaco, announced on 18 July 2023 at One Monte-Carlo: 300 m² over two levels, furnished by Elie Saab Maison.
Elie Saab occupies a boutique within the One Monte-Carlo district, place du Casino. It is the first permanent boutique of the house in the Principality — which implies earlier appearances without a lasting presence.
What this record documents
The 18 July 2023 announcement is picked up by Monegasque press and a trade wire, allowing the fact to be cross-checked: 300 m² over two levels, a ground floor for ready-to-wear, accessories and fragrances, a lower level for evening wear, and furnishings from the house line.
Memoria clarifies what it dates exactly: 18 July 2023 is the announcement date, not the day of public opening. The archive does not conflate the two.
Why it is archived
The arrival of a couture and evening-wear house in a new district — One Monte-Carlo opened in 2019 — documents how Monegasque luxury is redistributed. In four years the Carré d’Or welcomed Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Prada, Balenciaga, Gucci, Chloé and Elie Saab: that sequence is datable, and that is what makes it an archive.
