rivingtonreject 2 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 What does "couture" mean? I mean I thought I knew but apparently I don't haha LOL the modern definition is 'only for show'. Couture pieces are usually one of a kind and not produced in large quantities to be sold. the wearer is often chosen or offered to wear the garment as it is very exclusive. It has nothing to do with if you can afford it or not because couture is likely not for sale at least until the next season (SS vs FW) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JazzGa 14,348 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 What does "couture" mean? I mean I thought I knew but apparently I don't haha LOL -- EDIT-- WHOOPS like 12 million people already answered your question, sorry!!Ā Ā Alright prepare your body for knowledge Ā Ā "Couture" literally translates as "dressmaking" in French, but it usually referrs to "Haute Couture," or "high fashion." There's an official league of "haute couture" houses, and today only 9 houses are officially "couture." (Chanel, Versace, Dior, Lacroix, Givency, and I forget the others lol) Ā I like to think of it as more "art" than just "clothes" i.e. something a normal person, rich or poor, would never wear around on a daily basis, or could not even get access to purchase no matter how much money you have (unless of course you are Gaga ;) ) Ā Like fine art, It's made to be looked at, not sold, and can often be too weird or impractical for the public to desire. It's hand-made, custom-fitted and often one-of-a-kind. :) So all couture is designer, but not all designer is couture, nahwatamsayin?Ā Ā So it's a great honor for Gaga to wear couture since it's something you usually can't just throw wads of money at to gain access to!! :) God created Adam and Eve, but Gį»dga collabed with Brianšŗ and Steveš· Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought of "high fashion" in that way (i.e. fashion as an art form that's more for looking at instead of actually wearing) but I didn't realize couture was the same/similar.
