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.
This series of photos was done for the October 2007 issue of Vogue, featuring model Raquel Zimmerman. Not only are the gowns amazingly beautiful, but so is the interior. The photos were taken in a historic Parisian hotel.
