Krikor successfully emerged as one of the three top young Middle Eastern designers of the year , going on to present his first inaugural collection.
On the 16th of August 2008, Krikor presented his first ready-to-wear collection "Les Fleurs Bleues" at Faraya Mzaar, along with three other emerging Lebanese designers. In collaboration with Maison Rabih Kayrouz and Solidaire, the collection was hosted at STARCH boutique, located in Beirut's central district, in Saifi Village, as a space to promote young an upcoming exceptional talent.
This very successful experience for Krikor culminated in his decision to open his own dedicated Atelier on August 1st 2009.
