Charles Worth is known as the father of Haute Couture. The English designer moved to Paris and opened a boutique in 1858. In France, the label of “Haute Couture” is protected by Law. Therefore in 2006, Prada was not considered as an official Haute Couture house. To be considered as one, a certain number of criteria must be met by the fashion house such as number of employees and fashion show participation.
