Haute Couture SS22: Five trends that will impact the fashion industry

The phrase 'haute couture' can be traced back as far as 1908, but it was in 1945 that the current specifications of Le Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture were established. To be included, a design house must have a workshop in Paris that employs at least 20 full-time technical people and present a collection of at least 50 original designs to the public twice per year in January and July. Although the Couture is only for the very wealthy, as ever, this season was filled with inspirational looks that will undoubtedly impact several markets.
