Couture is the highest level of art in the fashion world. It involves innovative designs, high attention to detail and hours of work to create a one-of-a-kind couture piece. According to Vogue, only 200 women or so regularly buy couture. Despite the low sales figure, the art form continues because of its historic lineage and as a means of brand building. Couture's dream-worthy designs and runway productions are fantastic and inspire the imagination.
