Loving Haute Couture

I have a confession to make . . . . I LOVE Haute Couture, don’t you?

Its so sleek, chic, and original. The designers who have mastered Haute Couture and have kept this skill alive I believe are some of the hardest working people in the industry. I don’t have many favorites but Alexander McQueen, Jean Paul Gaultier, and Yves Saint Laurent make me smile.

The mystery of the world of couture is just so appealing. The secrecy, the lineage, and the cost. The cost is absolutely out of this world and if I had the money . . . . I would buy. These styles are not based upon a trend, or what Rhianna or Jessica Simpson is wearing. (side bar - did yall see JLo fall . . lol, I mean darn) It is style, concepts, imagination that is all its own and I love it!

Well as a plus size women I still love high fashion and at times can picture myself in it. Couture is expensive and very elite and my god soooo worth it. Plus size women and men I believe we also can and should enjoy couture, every stitch and design should fit us like a glove. And when I say plus size I mean all plus size. I don’t think couture is for just one type of person or body type or even person with a certain status.

I have actually found some plus size couture designers in Atlanta Ga, and New York Ny.
