The 5 Top Trends In Haute Couture — Red Carpet to Wedding Day
Haute Couture is one of our favourite fashion weeks. We have the 5 Top Trends In Haute Couture from the Red Carpet to Wedding Day. The gowns in Paris were blinged out, bejewelled, and bridal and architecturally designed.
The 5 Top Trends In Haute Couture
The Couture client has changed since 1858 when British designer Charles Frederick Worth established his first couture house in Paris. In 2024, the glamour is at 100 with K-POP fans blocking the entrance.
Celebrity-filled front rows who show up late, with an occasional celebrity on the runway, and intricate fashion innovations that will coax fashion’s approach to new techniques and silhouettes, as seen via the impact of quiet luxury throughout July’s couture season.
Couture’s January timing is stressful for stylists and journalists because it falls in the middle of red carpet season. With many looks taken by the hottest celebrities of the moment, sorry influencers, no loans this season. They are on Hollywood nominees. For example, Celine Dion presents at the Grammys wearing the latest Valentino couture.
Red Carpet to Wedding Day
Celebrities attend shows, too; if you see fans yelling outside a venue in Paris, it was probably for Zendaya and the anticipation of her upcoming role in “Dune: Part Two” at the Schiaparelli hautecouture show, wearing a black turtleneck with button braids and architectural satin maxi skirt that resembled a horse’s tail.
Actress and brand ambassador Natalie Portman sat in the front row at Dior haute couture (and met Rihanna outside the show), and actress Kelly Rutherford channelled her always-polished, iconic Instagram mirror selfies, also in and at Dior.
Celebrities can also become leading characters in the presentations, as Gwendoline Christie did when closing the megawatt Maison Margiela Artisanal couture spring 2024 show, which brought back high glamour and head-turning beauty, orchestrated by Queen Pat McGrath, and big theatrics to close the week.
Porceline makeup, how many hours did that take? Art on the runway. Galliano’s ode to the “underbelly of Paris” congealed the most influential trends throughout Couture Week: transparency, architectural volumes, daytime dresses, and the highly emphasised waist.
Daniel Roseberry kicked off the season on a high note with a Schiaparelli collection filled with architectural delights and new volumes.
Elsewhere, bejewelled looks from Zuhair Murad and Fendi, white bridal designs by Jean Paul Gaultier by Simone Rocha and Elie Saab, and transparencies from Armani Prive and RVDK Ronald van der Kemp sent the message of high craftsmanship and quintessential Couture.
Pierpaolo Picciolo showed eloquent daytime dressing options and capes in his Valentino collection.
“I want the kind of crowd that used to be in the Salon de Couture when Couture was born, but with different types of clothes that belong to this time, because I want all of this process of Couture to become contemporary.”
HAUTE COUTURE is not for everyone but only for fashion’s power players. We are grateful to be one of the blogs invited to shows.
