Haute Couture Contemporary

This year’s works of Stephane Rolland have really surprised the fashion industry in the best way possible. Firstly, his Summer 2008 is amazing in shiny sparkling fabrics. He’s got it all:

Elegance

Boldness

One – shoulder strap

Being relatively young designer in high fashion, Stephane Rolland has made his statement at the 2008 Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week by presenting his Fall Winter 2008 – 2009 collection.

It is this young designer who is truly the future of fashion, as an increasing number of clients are looking for fresh styles and modern ideas to bring life back into the historically appreciated art of Haute Couture. Stephane is more up to date and the way he modernizes details makes me feel the new spirit.

Unfortunately, not everyone understands the definition of Haute Couture, or high fashion. Here is a brief one for you.

Haute couture is a “protected name” that can be used only by brands that meet certain well-defined standards. The term is also used loosely to describe all high-fashion custom-fitted clothing, whether produced in Paris or in other fashion capitals such as Milan, London, Rome, New York and Tokyo. Haute couture is made to order for a specific customer, and it is usually made from high-quality, fancy fabric and sewn with extreme attention to detail and finish, often using time-consuming, hand-executed techniques.

Creations by French designer Stephane Rolland were unveiled during his Spring/Summer 2008 Haute Couture collection show in Paris on June 30.

The collection was a total blast compare to some high names. Not many fashion houses can say with pride that they are the leading force for the more contemporary young client. Unfortunately, most of Haute Couture doesn’t win hearts, it only gets appreciated as pieces of art, but Rolland’s work is that I would love to wear.

Moreover, we’re talking about the collection with new identity. I can see celebrities like Rihanna or Agyness Deyn wearing Stephane Ronaldo’s clothes.
