French Concours d’Elegance were all about integrated elegant style. On the other hand, the focus of the Italian Concorso (Concours) was purely the beauty of bespoke cars and cars with a very limited production. These contests provided many carrozzerias (automobile coach builders) that existed at the time in Italy with a great opportunity to show off their craftsmanship. Concours d’Elegance was very popular all over Europe and the United States until 1960s. Many competitions ceased to exist when bespoke automobiles were no longer popular for many reasons. However, in the 1980s, Concours d’Elegance was brought back by popular demand. Today these events have become the most exclusive and prestigious classic car events worldwide. Kuwait Concours d’Elegance is in the Italian style as are many revived Concours d’Elegance held since 1980s. The focal point of the show is hand-made classic cars, featuring automobiles from the early stage of the automotive industry through to bespoke cars of the mid-1970s.
