Haute Couture is an art. Haute Couture is a French phrase for high fashion. Couture means dressmaking, sewing, or needlework and haute means elegant or high, so the two combined imply excellent artistry with the fashioning of garments.
The fabrics available to a couture house are very luxurious and include novelty fabrics and expensive silks, fine wools, cashmeres, cottons, linens, leather, suede, other skins or furs. In the case of a famous design house the design and color of a cloth, can be exclusively reserved for that couture house.
Cecilia Perez says: "Fashion has been a vein that has branched off from the artistic world I've been submerged to in my mind and spirit since I have use of reasoning."
