Charles Frederick Worth, the nineteenth-century designer widely credited as the inventor of haute couture, embodied the excesses of his time, attracting an elite clientele with extravagant gowns rich in detail.

The Autumn/Winter 2025 haute couture show by Glenn Martens reimagined Margiela's ideas and ideologies, showcasing a collection that acknowledged and paid homage to John Galliano's influence.

Demna sought to make couture relevant in everyday life, opting for street photography over traditional couture settings. His final collection reflected a mix of humor and grace.

"The challenge for me was to make it still feel and look like Schiap, maintain the house signatures, and meet the moment without doing something that feels too easy."

Luis de Javier's debut collection at Paris Fashion Week beautifully fused haute couture glam with his unique avant-garde style, heralding a new era in fashion.
