It's all High Fashion - Part 2

The rules of Haute Couture:

In 1868, the federation 'Chambre Syndicale de la haute couture was born. You can ask them what High Fashion is about nowadays. You can call it Haute Couture when the 'chambre' allows it. Designs of Joseph Font (left) and George Chakra (right)

BEFORE a brand can call his or her collection haute couture/high fashion, you need to follow these rules:

- You have to be settled in Paris;

- You have to make at least 2 collections a year with at least 25 designs per collection;

- You have to have an own studio with at least 20 seamstresses;

- The designs have to be sewed (mostly) by hand;

- The clients have to fit 3 outfits of the brand.
