haute couture…… ?

17.November, 2009

can someone please simplify this for me a bit , i know waht it means .

but i need to know about it .

what are the main fashion houses and who are they and how did they come to be and stuff like that ?

and why is there like seperate names for each designer like this ..

"Galliano for Dior is the highlight and has been for a few years. Lagerfeld for Chanel had a bit of an odd misstep this season"

whats galliano for Dior??? help pleasee

I’m pretty sure John Gilliano is the designer, so the clothes Gilliano has designed for dior are the highlight of the collection. Karl Lagerfelds designs were a bit odd.

Haute Couture is the high end of fashion, each piece is individually made by the designers. It is made to measure.

Ready-to-wear collections are usually presented by fashion houses each season during a period known as Fashion Week. This takes place on a city-wide basis and occurs twice a year.

A fashion week is a fashion industry event, lasting approximately one week, which allows fashion designers, brands or "houses" to display their latest collections in runway shows and buyers to take a look at the latest trends. Most importantly, it lets the industry know what’s "in" and what’s "out" for the season. The most prominent fashion weeks are held in the fashion capitals Milan, London, New York, and Paris.

So Chanel, Dior, Ralph Lauren etc etc

    haute coture looks more like fancy dress and is hand specifically made tooo extreme

    main fashion houses: dior chanel guerlin valentino prada gucci stella loubtain

    each designer has different designer in each house so each collection must be designed by someone else??????
