For me, haute couture is a necessity. I never would have done this job were it not for haute couture. It is a comfort, a security. I almost feel it is our duty to continue. Haute couture is France. We have to keep all the skills and craftmanship alive.

Christian Lacroix

Couture is also a term used for top-of-the-range, to-order clothing - but not to the level of intricacy and expense as haute couture. And without the 'haute', the word 'couture' itself isn't protected.

Dawn O'Porter

It really is the very top of the fashion world; nothing comes above haute couture. But not any old designer can create something magical and call it haute couture; the term is strictly protected for a very special few.

Dawn O'Porter

I am very happy to design haute couture. It's a love story between couture and me.

Yves Saint Laurent

Haute couture consists of secrets whispered from generation to generation, If, in ready-to-wear, a garment is manufactured according to standard sizes, the haute couture garment adapts to any imperfection in order to eliminate it.

Yves Saint Laurent

With Dior Haute Couture, the dream is already there.

Patrick Demarchelier

I want to give haute couture a kind of wink, a sense of humour - to introduce the whole sense of freedom one sees in the street into high fashion; to give couture the same provocative and arrogant look as punk - but, of course, with luxury and dignity and style.

Yves Saint Laurent

Haute Couture should be fun, foolish and almost unwearable.

Christian Lacroix

I learned to work with my mother, who had an haute-couture business.

Gianni Versace

I will never forget my first Valentino Haute Couture show.

I think American is very democratic in allowing different hues of language and parts of speech to commingle. William Logan once wrote that I had something of a fetish for what he called "Haute Couture Vulgarity."
