Is Haute Couture going to die? ǀ Justine Leconte

- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- Compared to Prêt-à-Porter, Haute Couture is the dream, the fashion week that makes students go to fashion school to study fashion design. Couture is hand-made, made to order, it requires hours of work and it is only for the happy few who can afford a 10,000$ dress.
How comes we have Couture fashion week and ready-to-wear fashion week?
How comes we have both things within the fashion industry, which fashion houses do both?
Why is Haute Couture so expensive?
Thumbs up if you liked this video :-)
New videos: Wednesday 4pm & Sunday 12pm (Paris/Berlin time).
Take care!

The fashion knowledge you share totally change my shopping habit, I live in a country in which I don’t have an access to high-End fashion brands and the few shops which actually offer these brands sell them for 3x to 5x their actual prices. But I started to shop from local brands and smaller factories rather than brands like Zara or H&M. And I’m so glad with my wardrobe now. So Thank you so much for all the knowledge and tips you share with us ❤️
thanks a lot for telling me this!
Justine Leconte officiel will you do a video where u take us clothes shopping with u... Just like a shopping vlog... We would love to see the process of how u shop and how exactly u get such great clothing ...
I too have changed the way I purchase clothing. I've started to Google boutiques and follow #knowtheorgin on Instagram. I just bought my first piece. It's beautiful and I can't wait to wear it. I've learned a great deal from Justine.
I am wondering which country do you refer to ?
Romania then :). Zara and H&M are junk
I hope the legacy specialty knowledge you mention toward the end is not lost in the future. The pleating between the cardboard pieces looked difficult but the result was stunning. I hope such techniques find a home in an increasingly manufactured world. Art still matters. Love your channel. ❤️🥂 Thank you for these educational and entertaining videos.
You are such a warm person. It's nice seeing you. Thanks for your videos.

after watching our videos especially videos that provide fashion information ....... i feel a change .... every time i buy anything like clothes or jewellery or even accessorizes i can understand how my you helped me change my shopping habits ....thank you so much ..... and wishing the best for your future projects ...... love from Bangladesh
thanks & best wishes to you too!
Informative, clear, interesting and no-nonsense, as usual. Keep up the good work! Thanks for your amazing videos.
I think Haute Couture sells the dream that sells the brand that sells the perfume which is where the real money is! :)
+belladree exactly! But they could also sell the dream just with good advertising. So I am glad they do the dresses too :-)
So interesting! You asked what we thought about haute couture. As someone who was raised to make hand crafted objects I'm fascinated and awed by the skill of artisans who make haute couture. It would be awful if those skills were to disappear. All human knowledge has value to future generations. (I just learned that spacecraft and pharmaceutical scientists have been adapting ancient origami techniques to create components that are light, strong, compact to a small size yet open to a large surface area, etc.)
And yet it's worrying that there are now a relatively small number of people who control so much global wealth, that they can afford extravagant things that only a Marie Antoinette once could: like, ball gowns to be worn once, even though it took thousands of Euros in material and ten thousand hours of human labor to make. How should we feel about that?
Can you please do a hair care routine, your hair is gorgeous! Xx
H 42 second that!
It's so important to recognise fashion as a form of art! I have a friend who studies design, she is from a very artsy family. Her mum is a graphic and fashion designer and her dad is an architect. Often, the parents work together because they say that design and architecture are very similar. Both combine beauty or aesthetics with practicability. In Cologne, we have the museum of applied art (Museum für Angewandte Kunst Köln, MAKK), it displays everyday objects of many eras and their beauty. :)
Marie Bach,
Couldn't agree more! I am a self-taught patternmaker for now. I design and sew my own clothes. I've seen that it is pretty much like the architecture and engineering of the garment world. You design it, then engineer/test it to see what works and what doesn't. Then address the challenges accordingly. I am so in love! Lol! Coincidently, it has sparked in me an interest for architecture or engineering. I did nursing a while back.
I am an Artist & have been sewing & making my own clothes since I was 10yrs. old...6 decades now!
i think haute couture is not going anytime soon, I have noticed in so many cultures people spend extravagant time making traditional items of clothing that take almost a year to put it together like in India, China and other countries like mine. the bride along with other women are always made sure they are wearing unique pieces it is impossible to see anything similar so this is for me an haute couture
true, wedding gowns are sometimes "couture" garments - not to be mistaken with tailor-made gowns (still sewn on a machine, not by hand)
we don't wear wedding gowns I'd call them attires like traditional costumes made by hands like embroidery with golden thread and beading
I know the difference she gave a very thorough history and explanation of both, my point here is that the effort and the craft are equally put either in traditional outfits or haute couture, i just think that haute couture has no limits in creativity. and even fashion houses like Lesage have gotten most of the technics they use today from other cultures like Persia, the technic is the same but they evolved and moved beyond tradition
This was great. I’ve never understood Haute Couture but you have just opened my eyes. You have helped me change the way I purchase clothes. Thank you.
This is an amazing video! I had no idea about the dual nature of fashion houses and always wondered why they had so many collections of outright unwearable/impractical pieces. I think haute couture is an extremely important to draw in new talent and showcase creativity. I don't see it going away and thanks to some events like the Met Gala, we see haute couture in more settings other than in shows/magazines.
P. S. I agree with all the other people here that you've changed the way I shop for my clothes. Whenever I want to buy something new, your voice pops up in my head "will it still be fashionable in 10 years and will it go with enough pieces in your wardrobe?" :D you've helped so much
I would love to know more about the famous design houses, their history, and their influence on modern clothing.
Such a high quality content ! Thank you Justine for sharing your knowledge with us, it's really enlightening ! Super boulot, comme d'hab' ! 😁
merci!!
I have no bloody intrest in technicalities of clothing.
But I watch your videos for your passion behind it.
Love from India.
Same here
Could you do a video about high end brands (Chanel, Dior, Hermes, LV, Gucci etc) and whether they are worth the money?
Thank you for yet another informative video. You are crisp, concise and to-the-point. Love watching your videos.
Truly I like both. Ready to wear is where I live and purchase so that is definitely of more interest. I also like how ready to wear is simplified from haute couture. I am an absolute fan. Keep sharing I am listening.
thanks!
I LOVED this! Want more like it please. Thank you
Can you take us on a tour to see a haute-couture house constructing pieces? Some of te handcrafted pieces are gorgeous, but that homeless collection just rurns me off. I know that you say that the workmanship is supposed to be top notch, but I just cannot see it. It would be nice to see the pieces up close.
I agree haute catoure is more of an art show. Personally I don’t enjoy the more experimental ones. I like the wearable ones better. Which is why I like the ready to wear shows more.
Thanks a lot for your informative videos, Justine! My mother is a tailor so fashion, drapery etc. was in my life from day 1 :-)
In upcoming videos would you please explain/show us HOW all these beautiful things are produced. Handicrafts like making plisse, hats (milliner) or dyeing...
great topic suggestion!
I have always wondered how this worked - thank you so much for the explanation! While I was watching, I could not help but notice the pullover/sweater you were wearing, which made me think of pattern-making and how that collar and profile could be achieved. Would you consider a future video on pattern making? Thank you for all your videos - they are wonderful. Cheers
Could you please do a video on best hats for each face shape? I have a round/slightly square face and I've always hated hats because of how most of them make me look :/
Justine because of you , gradually i have change my wardrobe! I stopped buying clothes from fast fashion and i spend a little bit more but much better quality on my clothes! Thank you! :-)
People who do hand embroidery (and go blind in the process!) deserve a decent wage, and that alone will raise the prices of haut dresses and gowns. I don't begrudge the handcrafters a decent income - I just think it would be nice if I could afford to give them work! Meanwhile I continue to make my clothing on my sewing machine, am never happy with the results, and can only aspire to make clothing that even slightly resembles haut couture. Thanks for another great video Justine.
Justine your videos have really made me think about how I buys clothes. I no longer buy fast fashion and have edited my wardrobe to only include items I love. Funny enough, there wasn’t so much left after the editing! (Lol). Now I only buy items I really love and compliment my existing wardrobe. I love your top that you are wearing today. Can you share where you got it ? Is it still available to buy? Thank you for all your videos and sharing your point of view. It has really helped me and many others. 😊
feels like I am sitting in a fashion school lecture...but straight to the point!...thank you so much for the insight Justine!
What a great lecture, as always. I can finally understand the difference. Love your educational videos. I always feel that after 5 - 10 minutes I am much more richer in knowledge. For me watching you feels like a fresh air. Thank you for all your videos!
I used to look at many couture collections (with horror) and wonder 'WHY!? Who on earth would want to wear that?!' But I've come to understand that it's not necessarily about practicality but more about the artistry and skill that goes into the pieces of the collection. It is a lot of hard work to broaden the imagination of a society so I don't think all the 'crazy' stuff is going anywhere lol Thanks Justine
Oh how I love the Yves St. Laurent from the sixties! I'm thinking it's because the women I looked up to as a child were wearing clothes like them, and as I became a teenager in the seventies their influence was still so strong when my friends and I became interested in our own clothes.
Thank you so much! I loved this! I did not know about the Lognon process, I would love to learn more about it as well as Lesage. The handiwork and details in Haute Couture is an absolute thrill! Could you please do more videos about it? Merci beaucoup
I would say it is a new trend for some time now :DYI - do it yourself. Either trying to copy famous designers, or simply making something unique to wear, this is a real trend to consider. Of course, it's personalized, it's fun and easy (most of times) kind of fashion.
Lorelei Agreed. Frankly speaking only a few of cuttings work on my body...
I absolutely love your vlog!
I am better prepared to hit the shopping malls/stores...
I used to hate shopping for clothes, now, I have the confidence to get out there and choose wisely.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, Justine Leconte!
I have a question, maybe you can make a video about it? ;) Who is buying these so extravagant clothes? I don't mean dresses for e.g. Oscar night, but really pieces for not-anywhere-to-wear? And how these designers make money making these kind of fashion? Or ppl buy it just like for have it, like Mondrian's paintings? I mean, I like the "art" part of that, but if that's the point? Thank you for your answer. I love your videos!
Lela Beba these red carpet gowns are hardly ever owned by the celebrities. Either the brand offers to dress them for free for great advertisement; or actual gown rental companies buy them and there anyone can rent them out for a fee of course. Otherwise you're right, collectors buy them. I once went to an auction where personal belongings of Coco Chanel were auctioned off, including her own personal gowns. Often it's musea or art foundations who buy these.
Can you please show us where you shop from.. like some shopping vlog ?
Justine, you look especially lovely in that grey sweater. I spent the video trying to figure out what made that piece work so well for you. I really like the neckline.
Hi Justine, I love all of your videos; especially videos like this one where you explain the history, process, and techniques. I, too, think Haute Couture is important even though I will never own anything haute couture. Please keep making videos like this. Love, from Canada! xo
Passionnant comme d'habitude Justine ! J'espère que la tradition haute couture perdurera longtemps, tous ces savoirs-faire, ces merveilleux artisans doivent pouvoir continuer à nous remplir les yeux d'étoiles, c'est important que tout ne soit pas "prêt à jeter" n'est-ce-pas ?
tout à fait d'accord :-)
I love the history and education!!!
Those rich embroideries, I can only imagine how much work and skill goes into them.
Your knowledge is very impressive! Every time I learn something new.
+irina kaspira I do some extra research before talking about a subject 😉
Justine Leconte officiel Not everyone can pull such a concise, informative and fun presentation despite available resources. Kudos to you! 😉
The conservation of skills in big houses are awesome but something I will probably never see personally ... can't afford it 😂. But it is really pretty to look at from a diatance 😉
So soooo grateful for this chanel and videos!!! It transpires real value, true values, and in the end pure love for beauty and things very well done. I had a discussion with my mother one day as I was defending the idea that in today' s global market everybody can master the art of couture.... After a 5mn monologue, my mother looked at me and answered: "yes but no one does it better than the french, the finish is just perfect"... I went on, kept insisting, but mom... Milan, New York, etc etc... Calmly, she dried her hands ( we were in the kitchen...) :" yes but no one does it better than the french..." I had to agree and after watching you through several videos bringing bit by bit, one touch after the other what quality means according to a certain set of criterias ( aesthetics, human, artistic, rational, philosopical, emotional....) and on a very concrete basis, all I can say here is : chapeau bas!!!! ... A true plaisure!
Mom is not french just someone who can recognise exquisite work and give credit where credit is due even if it means showing a stubborn daughter not to run to conclusions too quickly...:-)
Fashion history is very interesting thing.. always.. Where do I shop, as an average American women? ... TJMaxx, Marshals, department stores on clearance days.... For 23 years I observed how the Americans created their own rules of style and fashion: does not matter how ugly, what does matter is how unusual. I would love to see more videos on history of fashion. I do make my own clothes because mass production can not satisfy the personal needs of the individual.
Justine.. I am speechless.. Each and every video is so informative, interesting and straight to the point.. Knowledge in fashion field is underestimated.. I really appreciate your effort in raising knowledge and awareness in this aspect.. Much love and gratitude from Egypt
Love this kind of history lesson, Justine! Thank you.
I love these videos. You're helping to educate us all on ethical practices and taking us behind the curtain to see how the fashion business really works and how it affects us all and the planet. Keep up the good work.
I’m so grateful that the tradition of the haute couture has been maintained by a few of the great French houses. It would be a tragic loss, not just to France, but to the world, if the amazing arts and crafts of the couture houses were lost. My grandmother, born in London in 1887, was a Court dressmaker, apprenticed at the turn of the last century. She sewed the dresses that women and debutants wore to be presented to the king and queen of England. They had to fulfill specific requirements: trains exactly a yard long, three ostrich feathers in the headdress, gloves of a certain length and fabric, specified motifs in the embroidery, etc. She sewed and embroidered exquisitely and I felt so lucky as a child that my dolls benefited from her handiwork.
I really like watching haute couture shows online. It's like walking through a gallery and seeing a show at the same time.
I think every creative endevor eventually ends up in that place where there is a split. One side becomes a creative business one an art form.
For example, photography.
There is the business of taking photos to capture and commemorate special moments, places, and people. Then there is the artistic side where a statement or idea is explored.
This was very interesting. I just got back into sewing my own clothing a year ago, and I, being from the Rocky Mountains in the U.S. never heard of the term Haute Couture until a year ago. I did some studying about it and learned how Queen Elizabeth's clothing was made for her with a customized fit and that then triggered for me to learn how to adjust patterns to fit my own body type. I am finally wearing clothing that fits, feels comfortable, and looks complementary. It is very interesting to learn more.
This is very interesting and you present it so well that it’s understandable. Yes, more of this topic and maybe videos on the different fashion houses. I’d like see one on Chanel and HERMÉS and then one comparing them … their history, styles and business practices. Thank you!
Thank you for the explanations. Always enjoy your videos! !
This makes so much sence to me now. Always wondered why some couture clothinf would look so unwereable but still make headlines.
I’ve been really fortunate to have been able to see haute couture garments close up in museum exhibitions in the past few years (Jean Paul Gaultier and Yves Saint Laurent), and the designs, fabrics, techniques, needlework and other embellishments are always absolutely breathtaking. What a privilege it must be to be able to wear them and enjoy them from the inside. The craftspeople who can bring the designs to actuality are living national treasures and we need to provide opportunities for people to learn and practice these skills, not only to protect our heritage, but also to develop new materials, techniques and skills for the future. Thank you for all your insights.
Justine, another high quality video. Thank you! You make my Wednesdays and Sundays :) Yelena
I love your videos! This was so interesting. Could you do a video on men's fashion, bespoke suits and things like that? I'm curious about what you know about the history on that particular topic. Thanks. :)
I love these fashion history videos the best!! So much is explained, then understood- fabulous! More please 🙏🏻 👏🏼👏🏼
Loved this. I always think of relevance when I watch Project Runway (& play along at home :). The designers must capture the imagination & positive attention of the super-rich (haute couture) potential buyers, while also not putting off the masses of us who are not in that fantastic bubble.
+vegeroot and it ends up being quite a challenge, creatively...!
Thank you so much for taking up the challenge. :) Happy Holidays!
That was so interesting. I learn so much from your videos. Yes, to more videos like this.
No videos on Wedn and on Sunday...I was looking forward to watching them! More, please. All the best
This was informative, thank you! As a petite hourglass, I wish I could have things taylor-fit for me! Haha! Need to bring the 1800s back.
Love this ♡! Please more historical videos!!!
Almost everyone in India wears haute couture by this definition :D
I understand, rationally, that Haute Couture is not 'supposed' to be wearable in everyday situations, it's more like a statement, an art form, an expression of the designer's creativity. It is supposed to be challenging our viewing habits, I guess... Still, I just don't _get_ it on an emotional level. I look at those pieces and sometimes I feel I can see what the designer is getting at, what message they want to transport or what concept they're playing with, and I certainly admire the amount of work that goes into those elaborate designs, however, I just can't connect with the idea of creating something that is worn on the body but is, at the same time, not something any reasonable person would actually wear, not even to a fancy event. Also, most of the designs are just too outrageous for me. Too many different shapes, fabrics, colors and details in one piece. Sometimes the models seem to 'drown' in fabric. It's not very aesthetically pleasing to me, which makes it hard for me to really understand why this kind of fashion is labeled as superior and worth thousands of dollars while workers doing similar amounts of work but sadly in the 'wrong' sector get paid less than minimum wage :/
But it's the same with contemporary art! I recently visited the exhibition of new pictures by Gerhard Richter and it's just too abstract for me. Yet I overheard other people talking about the deeper meaning of the colour combinations and how it moved them deep inside. Art is subjective. And actually, that's very beautiful, I think.
And no, it's not "superior", it's different. You wouldn't compare a painter who paints walls to Michelangelo, would you?
Great informative video as always. Really interesting!! Thanks Justine :)
Very interesting video, thank you! I like looking at pictures of the haute couture collections in magazines and on the internet. It is more art than function, but as you said, that's ok, art has an important place in our society as well. 😊
Thank You! You explained in a way I can understand. Know I see why some of the runway stuff is over the top. It’s not so much about selling that particular piece but about getting noticed. Can it survive? Even though it’s out of my reach, I hope it does.
One more time you did it!!! As jeweler love your Cotuer videos! Big thumbs UP! And Thank you!
Thanks for the short instructive lecture, I really enjoyed learning a little snippet. Interesting and informative. I do love the art of haute couture, it gives me inspiration and courage to experiment with my own designs, although I appreciate the production quality will be vastly different as I'm not as technically skilled, it doesn't diminish my enjoyment. So while there is enough money and interest I think art in all forms will continue, we need the stimulation. I love your top too. It looked like a very warm, drappy fine wool or wool mix, perhaps merino?
You are a fantastic teacher. I have discovered a new interest in clothing design and fashion because of you. Thank you!
Love this, what a good, simple yet clear explanation of what we see on the haute couture runways. It never made much sense to me until now. Your videos are so educational! Any chance of a video on Melania Trump's beautiful clothing and style?
I love my fashion history lessons delivered by supremely knowledgeable Justine!
I find the craftsmanship behind couture clothes simply amazing. The future of craftsmanship is quite an imortant topic now as yound people are not interested in crafts so much any more and ofc, because of the mechanised processes used in the production chain. It is also quite a paradox that students come to study fashion blinded by the idea of becoming star designers, creating extravagant fashion, ect., when the reality is, they do not know much about textiles, an important aspect of couture, about various techniques, ect. Ufortunately, design schools often fail to provide those things, also needed for the rtw industry and a lot of young designers lack this knowledge. They also lack knowledge of the fashion production chain in general, making them think that if they want to be in fashion, they must become designers, when there are many more opportunities. On the other hand, because of globalization, everything has become so similar (also the reason for the rise of the personalization trend), that exclusiviness is now much needed in order to differentiate from other individuals and this is where couture steps in once again as it can provide both the new ideas and exclusivity at the same time. There will always be those who want to differentiate and can afford such luxury, so I think that couture is not going away any time soon.(; However, it is important for the craft to flourish and make it look attractive for the young so they would learn from the craftsmen and would later continue the traditions and without it, there's also no couture
Could you do a video on how to pick a bridesmaids dress for your body shape, please? Love your videos!
I never leave your channel without learning something new. Your videos are so educational
Thank you Justine. I was always curious about this aspect of the fashion industry.
That was extremely informative. It was quite extensive, yet your delivery broke it down so that it presented a clear picture of the "fashion" industry and how it's evolved.
They say that's the sign of an excellent teacher! One who can take complex material and present it in such a way that it's easy to understand and a pleasure to learn. You certainly did that.
Haute couture is, without a doubt, an art form. But in reality, how many individuals can afford to purchase? Celebrities on the red carpet borrow designs for the “who are you wearing?” interview. Couture houses cannot remain in business without the income from perfume, handbags, accessories, etc, sold to the masses. So true haute couture is basically what the uber rich ‘collect’. I enjoy and look forward to all your videos, Justine!
Ani Merci as the gap between the middle class and the superrich has increased, more and more people can afford the pieces.
Always love your educational videos. You add an interesting twist to the world of fashion
yes, more about haute couture and design :)
Where have you gone?! No videos this week :(
Hey Justine! Thanks for another unique and informative video. So are haute coutures profitable at all for fashion houses? Is anyone actually buying these? If they’re not profitable, then do fashion houses just make these purely for art? Thank you!
Lynne Z. , In general they aren't profitable. It takes a big team of people several months to work on one garment. Then the garment is generally shown during a catwalk. People watching can decide if they want to buy it. For example Oprah once went to a Haute Couture fashion parade just to see what it's like attending this event. She didn't plan on buying anything. But there was a red dress she loved. So she brought it, and wore it during a red carpet event.
You are so incredibly clever, and for Americans like me, I don’t think there’s anywhere else I could glean your particular brand of knowledge. Thank you so much for posting.
Thank you Justine. I loved this video.
Very informative and interesting video! Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge with us! I would love to see a vlog of your week or day sometime--I would be fascinated to see what you do & what it is like in Berlin as a fashion designer!
Thanks for the amazing information!! I would definitely like to hear more information like this!!
Loved it! Keep them coming. I enjoy learning the story of fashion from you!
I would love to see Haute Couture houses highlight all their amazing artisans and the particular and rare art they create making it possible to bring to life each piece envisioned by their also amazing Fashion Designers. How about bringing in an artisan to walk the runway side by side with the fashion creator and the model?
+Teresa Martins great idea!!!
I would love more videos like this!!!
that homeless collection sounds insulting af....any percentage of the profits go to the homeless, do you know?
Teresa Fuller while it's certainly quite tactless, it's a great example of good intentions gone wrong. Galliano, always a provocateur, wanted to point the finger at the condescending bourgeoisie, and how they feel like a better class than homeless people. Other designers like Vivien Westwood have admittedly been inspired by homeless people, but they didn't name a whole collection as blatantly as Galliano (Clochard is a very pejorative word).
Merci Justine pour cette vidéo de qualité 😍! Peux-tu faire une vidéo sur les différents types de prêt-à-porter et les marques à éviter comme les fast fashion ou à privilégier (avec un bon rapport qualité -prix), s’il te plaît ? Merci et bonne semaine 😘
Great job! Where’s your dress from? I love it 😍
Merck. very educational and interesting. J from Canada
Justine, this was so interesting!! Thank you for the history lesson. 👗
So enjoyable! Delightfully educational, Justine. And p.s. I want all the items in your gifts for men video. :))
+paula lee hahaha me too 😁
thank you very much for sharing with us the fashion knowledge in such a brief but trenchant way!!! I love to watch the Haute Couture shows especially from Chanel and Dior. Not for their wearability nor the affordability, of course :P Just as you said, I see them more as a piece of art, presented via the combination of stage setting, music and the Collection by the designer. Anyway, thank you for producing the great content! Please do keep rolling!;-)
I love your history video's! !👍👍
In love with the content of this channel! I would appreciate your personal hair routine video.
Very informative video and i really enjoyed it, particularly about the pleating of the fabric - i had no idea it was done like that and it's really fascinating! Thank you :D
+ramblerjam my pleasure!
Merci, Justine! Excellent discussion of the fashion industry’s evolution & the ways in which haute couture & prêt-à-porter now function together as theory & practice. I also appreciate that you stress the importance of valuing & preserving the specialized handwork techniques that make couture so very exquisite. Lovely top you’re wearing, btw.
