the person who is considered to be the founder of the paris haute couture was
Haute couture The couturier Charles Frederick Worth (October 13, 1826 â€“ March 10, 1895), is widely considered the father of haute couture as it is known today.[4][12] Although born in Bourne, Lincolnshire, England, Worth made his mark in the French fashion industry[1]. Revolutionizing how dressmaking had been previously perceived, Worth made it so the dressmaker became the artist of garnishment: a fashion designer. While he created one-of-a-kind designs to please some of his titled or wealthy customers, he is best known for preparing a portfolio of designs that were shown on live models at the House of Worth. Clients selected one model, specified colors and fabrics, and had a duplicate garment tailor-made in Worth's workshop. Worth combined individual tailoring with a standardization more characteristic of the ready-to-wear clothing industry, which was also developing during this period.
