Stroll in Paris and spot a Haute Couture shop? It’s not just fancy babble! A combo of exclusive, tailor-fitted clothing, obsessively handmade from bizarrely high-end fabrics—it’s “high sewing.” Prepared to mortgage your car or home for one piece, though. Today, it still represents luxury, regulated by Paris’ ‘Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture.’ Alas, if, like me, you’re an everyday-Joe, much safer to stick to the off-rack stuff.
Pondering about the humble necktie? Those strips of fabric originating from 17th century Croatian mercenaries elevated by King Louis XIII to royal accessory status? Now, they undergo countless changes, reflect art movements, and give men a shot of expressing their artistic sides. Lads, next time you tie one on, remember it’s not just fashion, it’s history against your Adam’s apple!
