HAUTE COUTURE Autumn/Winter 2015-16 the Couture Show Is a Fantasy Land, an Artist’S Playground HAUTE COUTURE Autumn/Winter 2015-16 The Couture show is a fantasy land, an artist’s playground. It doesn’t have to make sense, rationally or economically. It is the opportunity for a designer to show off his technical skills as well as push the limits of his imagination. Like art, it follows the highest bidder philosophy and little wonder then, that the home base for this is Paris. For a fashion expert/enthusiast, it’s an event like no other fashion week will ever be. This is where the experts come out to play, and if you are provided a peek in the haloed circle, the clothes leave you agog. They go beyond the definition of mere covering and are as magnificent on the inside as they are on the outside. A true bespoke experience, it is fussed over by the best tailors, embroiders and seamstresses over painstaking hours to provide the highest quality. New ideas are born; ironically in this archaic tradition of couture houses being restricted by the rules of Syndicale de la Haute Couture, concepts come alive that have lasting impacts over decades.

  • The Effects of Globalization on the Fashion Industry– Maísa Benatti
    ACKNOLEDGMENTS Thank you my dear parents for raising me in a way that I could travel the world and have experienced different cultures. My main motivation for this dissertation was my curiosity to understand personal and professional connections throughout the world and this curiosity was awakened because of your emotional and financial incentives on letting me live away from home since I was very young. Mae and Ingo, thank you for not measuring efforts for having me in Portugal. I know how hard it was but you´d never said no to anything I needed here. Having you both in my life makes everything so much easier. I love you more than I can ever explain. Pai, your time here in Portugal with me was very important for this masters, thank you so much for showing me that life is not a bed of roses and that I must put a lot of effort on the things to make them happen. I could sew my last collection because of you, your patience and your words saying “if it was easy, it wouldn´t be worth it”. Thank you to my family here in Portugal, Dona Teresinha, Sr. Eurico, Erica, Willian, Felipe, Daniel, Zuleica, Emanuel, Vitória and Artur, for understanding my absences in family gatherings because of the thesis and for always giving me support on anything I need. Dona Teresinha and Sr. Eurico, thank you a million times for helping me so much during this (not easy) year of my life. Thank you for receiving me at your house as if I were your child.

  • International Fashion Exhibition in Tilburg This Autumn
    Press release INTERNATIONAL FASHION EXHIBITION IN TILBURG THIS AUTUMN The Art of Lace | Haute couture from Chanel to Iris van Herpen 16 November 2019 - 10 May 2020 Louis Vuitton From Chanel to Dior to Jean Paul Gaultier, lace has been a source of inspiration for countless prestigious fashion houses. The TextielMuseum is proud to present the international exhibition ‘The Art of Lace | Haute Couture from Chanel to Iris van Herpen’, featuring creations by the world’s most renowned names in fashion. Opening on 16 November, the exhibition portrays the innovative power of French Leavers lace and was previously on show in Calais. The visitor is given a behind- the-scenes look at lacemakers and couturiers: from the design and manufacture to the finished product, ready for the catwalk. The show includes more than 40 one-of-a-kind items by fashion greats Alberta Ferretti, Balenciaga, Chanel, Dior, Jean Paul Gaultier, Iris van Herpen, Louis Vuitton, Maison Margiela, Schiaparelli and Yiqing Yin. Iris van Herpen Alberta Ferretti Leavers: innovation in lace Woven on a loom, Leavers lace can accommodate the experimental designs of couturiers while also challenging them to the utmost in creating their collections. The fabric looks delicate but is actually quite strong: unlike knitted lace, it does not fray. It can be transparent or opaque, can incorporate varying patterns, materials and colours, and can be woven in 3D. For Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld laminated the lace, allowing the stiffness of the material to accentuate the patterns, while Iris van Herpen is inspired by lace in 3D printing that mimics the effect of this ornate fabric.
