Couture...the queen of handmade!
So today marks the start of Spring 2013 couture fashion week in Paris, and being a lover of all things handmade and crafted we just had to write a little blog.
Obviously most of us can only just dream of owning an Haute Couture item, with pieces retailing for five or even six figure sums, with but we still love gawping at the works of art created by high end designers such as Chanel, Dior, Versace and Ellie Saab.
Couture for those of you that do not know, means dress making, sewing or needle work. Each piece is handmade and sewn by the most experienced seamstresses using time consuming, hand executed techniques. Each item can take months to make and numerous seamstresses at work.
So in celebration of couture fashion week, why not check out our very own version of couture ;)....CAGECITYS handmade :). Each item may not take many months to create but rest assured, they are still made with attention to detail and plenty of love!
Check out a couple of our favourites from the Dior Couture SS13 collection (top) and Versace Couture SS13 collection. Keep an eye on the coming Couture shows shows here:
Have also included CAGECITY's Couture ;)...HANDMADE...which is a little sneak peek...soon to hit the site!
