Fashion pret-a-porter
When it comes to high fashion, you probably noticed that most often used two definitions - couture and pret-a-porter. What are the differences between these collections? Fine clothes from haute couture are created in a limited quantity, and are usually made for a specific person or simply for demonstrating outrageous and bizarre models. Prices for such things are very high, so few can afford such models.
But pret-a-porter clothing, by contrast, has all the standard sizes available, and is mass-produced in factories in many countries. Almost all the famous Fashion Houses produce such lines and are not going to abandon them, since the incomes are very high. Translation of the rret-a-porter from the French language sounds like "ready to wear".
Collections of clothes rret-a-porter are often divided into several types:
- expensive exclusive clothes with limited edition. (Equal to haute couture);
- more affordable designer clothes, with a great release;
- things at democratic prices, mostly denim or sports lines.
