"Haute couture" is generally a one-of-a-kind custom-made designer garment where "pret a porter" is ready-made retail garments in large quantities.
Couture is the art of dressmaking Haute Couture is the fashions created by the art of dressmaking.
Pret-a-Porter is ready to wear, off the rack, off the peg, off the shelf. You simply buy stuff "as it is" Haute Couture is french for "high sewing" and is custom-made or made to order for a certain client. Very highly priced and of course available to not a lot of clients. For menswear, the term is bespoke, or semi-bespoke.
Haute couture is the french name for bespoke clothing meaning one - off.
The Father of Haute Couture was Charles Frederick Worth.
Wearing haute couture is an aspirational symbol of power and prestige reserved for those for whom money is no object.
All you have to do is simpily have a desire to sew, and create things. Many haute couture designers love high fashion. I, as a haute couture designer went to get a degree in fashion, and then I chose to start my businessat my house. I also hired other desingers to work with me to help me with my designing. That is just a simple I started my own haute couture line. actually haute cature or high sewing is a specific style of fashion design promienet to one part of Paris called Chambre de commerce et d'industrie de Paris where designers are clothing lines are expected to meet certain standards as set out by the Chambre de commerce et d'industri de Paris to be actually classified as Haute Couture, so the member before me is actually not a proper haute couture designer and never will be unless he/she becomes a member of the Chambre syndicale de la haute couture, where by these member have to meet three standards to call themselves a couture house and use "Haute Couture" in their advertising
