First let’s cover the definition of what “Couture” is. “Couture” pronounced as (Koo-Toor) is defined as the creation of exclusive custom-fitted clothing that is made to order for individual clients. Some people think that it is impossible to have a “Couture” wardrobe full of high quality and perfect fitting garments because of the incredible expense, when in all actuality it is very possible to acquire such an amazing closet full of “couture” pieces, by investing your time and money into long lasting pieces over cheaply made trendy looks. I believe it is more important to invest in the staples of your wardrobe and add trendy accessories to complete the look, keeping you professional, age appropriate, and most importantly fashionable.
Some people prefer understated styling, while others enjoy a more grand flair to their wardrobe, but no matter the person or style, designers like me can create flattering and long lasting looks in your favorite designs and colors to best represent your professional and personal lifestyle. With your designer’s help, you will select flattering colors, high quality fabric, and when put together will develop designs that will compliment your figure. Once the design process is complete, the intense attention to detail and construction is applied and allows the client to enjoy a perfect fitting and long lasting wardrobe. Some might ask the question “Why are these pieces so expensive?” Well you are paying for the personal service with your designer (which includes seasonal updates on your already existing custom made wardrobe with small investment for additional pieces), workmanship, originality of design, fit, and materials used in order to create a coordinated wardrobe. Think about it this way, let’s say you go shopping and spend an average of $300.00 a month on new and up to date trendy looks and after wear and tear and dry cleaning you have to replace them, resulting in you spending up to $3600.00 a year for clothes that you ultimately have to throw away because of their low quality versus spending $3600.00 on 3 suits that are custom made and designed especially for you and your lifestyle using flattering colors, prints, and fabrics that will last for 10 years based on the high quality workmanship that is applied to each individual piece.
