Handmade Haute Couture

The founding father of haute couture was an Englishman named Charles Frederick Worth. In 1858, he opened a shop on Paris’ Rue de la Paix. A notable innovation precursory to the modern fashion scene, brought about by Charles Frederick Worth, was the emergence of the designer label. It became a practice to debut seasonal collections, shown live to clients with the use of models. Members of high society came to the designer’s plush boutique, not the other way around. No less than the great author of that period, Charles Dickens, remarked in astonishment that a bearded man was allowed to practically let his hands roam free on the highest titled women in Paris— dressing and undressing them at his behest, physically moving them to any bodily position he wished.

If one so wishes, today’s modern woman can choose to be laden in fashion luxuries similar to those afforded to women of high society. She can easily travel across the globe, looking for great finds at some of the most famed boutiques there are. Exude confidence through your fashion sense, by being bold, fashion-forward, and aware of the latest trends.
