Couture
I was reading the Wall Street Journal Magazine recently and found myself so interested in their article about the Couture houses of fashion. I'm admittedly largely ignorant of this part of the industry. I was delighted to learn about the idiosyncrasies of this discrete sector. With garments going for the hundreds of thousands, the clientele for couture is narrow at best. Even as blatantly high brow and elitist as it is, couture brings much to savor in terms of imagination and beauty. Below are some of the lucky celebrities who have donned Chanel couture on the red carpet. Unlike the rest of us, they likely didn't pay to be so lavishly dressed. Don't be bitter, be better! If they weren't wearing them, we wouldn't get the benefit of admiring the amazing craftsmanship! Enjoy.
