Incredible the amount of labor that goes into each fabric. I would go so far as to say these should be considered as fine art.

These guys are legendary, they're the reason why I took up fashion design.

The music at the beginning of this video is Beethoven’s 4th, piano concerto.

Fashion were so beautiful back then. I love the shoulders, the make up, the colors.

the clothes are to die for, even today you see some of these pieces and they are absolutely gorgeous. The models and the clothes are timeless. Iconic!

I have often heard the name Ungaro, but I had no idea he made such beautiful clothes. His level of design was comparable to Dior and that is really saying something. I love Designers that know how to make women look so beautiful.

I Love Haute Couture The people that make these garments are true artist. Just like I love costuming In film & in dance concerts Makes all the difference. Hundreds of hours of work go into some of these garments. Great documentary Thanks for Posting. 🙏

quality of original beauty you have never seen before in your life time.

BRAVO for so much Creation, Work, Beauty, Elegance and Harmony for the whole Humanity !

Such beautiful clothes! I could never imagine having that kind of lifestyle to be able to spend thousands of dollars on a dress or a blouse, a coat or a skirt. Definitely worth it for those who can do so. The amount of work that goes into haute couture, the patience, the sheer love of what they do so brilliantly, the artistry. It’s amazing!

🙋 All is vanity.

I really enjoyed watching this! Still interesting to see!❤️❤️

Grace Mirabella - after Diana Vreeland before Anna Wintour.

Thanks to the FURS channel for publishing this rare and still very informative video! Those who grew in USSR of 70-80s - were less acquainted with details of European fashion industry, just heard the names ilof the greatest designer, so the information, represented in this video - is still very interesting for them.

A Valentino blouse is about $20,000. The average daily wage in Ghana is $1. Do we need a world with couture? Of course we do. Ungarro died at age 86 in 2019.

I'm here because I love the fashion models.

its so involved from the creators, the buyers, all the people involved in this Haute Couture. how we dress our body and show off our curves. confidence. the light weightness of it.

Amazing find, thanks.

how time pass but a lot of thing remains the same quality and glamour good video 👌👌👌👌👌

So beautiful

Most of this glorious stuff ends its days unsold in a refrigerated room THE MUSEUM OFTHE ALL-CONSUMING NEVER-NEVER

Великолепно. Очень интересный фильм. Многие идеи и снова вернулись на подиум и снова интересны. Странно , я думала ,что совсем не понимаю английскую речь. Но слушаю героев фильма и понимаю без титров. Так спокойно , душевно они передают свои мысли.

Marvellous molto grazie

Incredibly beautiful - the numbers of families that were able to stay together and raise their children because of distinguished employment 🌹

It was during the 1980s era of fabulous fashion that had the fortune of entering the fashion industry as the assistant to the Fashion Director of all the Bullocks Wilshire stores where I had a wonderful and stressful time selecting High Fashion for the Floor and Tea Room Models amongst other duties. I got free “last season” Chanel jewelry from the Display Department who purchased them for a season. Beautiful Art Deco 1929 building on Wilshire Blvd. & Vermont, Los Angeles. Janet

I remember when JC Penneys got Halston Ready-to-Wear back in the late 70's early 80's. All the other stores in the mall were in hysterics.

So glam! Divine. What year is this doco?

How elegant

it's sad that Lacroix never turned a profit in his whole career and isn't even in business anymore.

Nan Kemper.....the man can take fur and make it so living! Yes, sweetheart it once was living!

The fashion of before is coming in is reflected now a day's..only that before the ladies the woman was more elegant an delicate than what is today..but still the fashion is shown now a days. ❤❤

Immer wieder eine Kunst! Gefällt mir... aber ich vermisse immer noch Karl #karlforever, Grüße Fotograf #robertfreund

when was this documentary shot ?

An art form. Classic beautiful fashion. As old as the day. The species has seen some incredible fashion designers. God has brought to the earth, so many fantastic human beings, in various fields/careers, creative people, funny people, sweet people. We’ve been blessed, in that, aspect. IF only we’ve set to appreciate each other whilst they were alive, more often, as of any. Sure it seems, while some take notice, it is often too late realized, how special, how unique the individual is, was, until their passing and enough times, too many, tragically, to tragedy, preventable. Grateful to witness, the human story/stories, time to time, really.

Every single couturier portrait in this docu was a great designer ( almost all of them have already departed) and is irreplaceable in the history of costume, and fashion trends. That is an undisputed fact, so I don't need to praise them any longer. I m here just to say:- Emanuel Ungaro had a really sexy, masculine beautiful voice!- Even if his looks weren't that outstanding, his clothes were just that, and more, but the man could take also credit for his voice: I would believe everything he said, without any hesitation, and follow his lead. Luckily is he here n more. Maybe "luckily" is not the right term since I confuse always the man with his brand & his deeds (exceptional dresses), so I have to think about it better. Yes! that was a rant,but coming from sincere admiration.

Well, she looked stunning, got very old and was very wrong a lot. Though I love the dieting tips with lots of wine. Who can resist that? Passing out and slimming down at the same time :'-)

Wowa fashion evolution

to think we all sling on jeans most of the time we look like old bags compared to all the beautiful clothes /fashions off the past/mind you you got to have the figure to wear them well,dont get me started on middle age spread

'Gloat couture'? Fascinaitng while it lasts. The moralist in me is incorrigibly dazzled

“The Privileged Few”

I was 12 yrs old when this aired on channel 11 in Chicago. It’s still amazing.

Anouk Aimee is very pretty.

1:08 😢😚

what year was this documentary made? late 1970's - early 1980s?

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ IN THE CLUB ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

😊🙏

Haute Couture. expensive, fashionable clothes produced by leading fashion houses. (In case you were wondering, like myself)

Does anyone know the name of the music/composition in the beginning of this video?

At 17:00 LINA Ricci insted of NINA Ricci, come on VOGUE !

Rumor has it that Ungaro started out as the assistant to courreges. Courreges was only successful for the few years that ungaro was his assistant.

Aaaah. To wear these beautiful clothes...I hope couture is always with us...pieces of art...so sad when you see how people dress today. Workout clothes and sweatpants...yuk..flip flops!!

song at 29:50 ?

Does someone know th emusic in the beginning?

Was Karl throwing shade at YSL when he said “and I won’t mention any names” ?

Gace Mirabella has just died last december, the 23rd of 2021.

What the fashion victim Nan Kempner said about Fendi furs was deplorable, furs are so sexy!

💝💯💋👏

It's funny that all of these couturiers coudldn't sew a single stitch themselves.

@42:52 the woman is like “it’s Asia, it’s Africa” as if fashion’s been exclusive to Europe when in reality fashion, style and textile innovation and design have been synonymous with these continents way before Europe. And Poiret’s appropriated designs are proof.

@ 35:10 - “The man can take fur and make it so living.” Seriously lady? It WAS living until Karl had it killed, purchased the carcass and made it into a coat. 😂

Ungaro didn’t build much. ITS CLOTHES

What an amazing thing my God how things have changed, so many faces gone no fur very little embroidery and no Grand women

6:10 didnt know Justin Trudeau was a designer

교도소가야될사람/교도소않가도될사람

I guess that Edith Beaudoux inspired deeply the Miranda Priestly character.

And along came McQueen & Iris Van Herpen.

Captivating, an art form. But, as a lifestyle, it's another planet. There's just a taste of corruption....

0:40:57 One of my biggest pet-peeves is in menswear... that the photographer does NOT instruct the man wearing a suit jacket to pull the back of it down when he sits -- he could be wearing a 17,000$ jacket, and the collar where it meets the shoulder pads is all bunched up. EVERY TIME!! NO woman on the planet is seen wearing clothing - high priced or not - like this. It is utter reDIculous that this documentary shows such ill-attention to detail when it comes to one of the higher-ranking men/artists. Inexcusable.

imediately i thought of Lydia in the bible. known as the seller of purple. Acts 16:13-15 Philippi colony, principal of the district of Macedonia the disiples went outside a gate beside a river. they sat down and began speaking to women who had assembled there. A woman name Lydia a seller of purple from the city ofThyatira, and a worshipper of God was listening and Jehovah opened her heart wide to pay attention to the things Paul was saying. Now when she and her household got baptized she urged us, If you have considered me to be faithful to Jehovah come and stay at my house. and she just made us come. Lydia pain close attention.she even made her home available for a meeting place for christians.the bible also mentions the ancient kingdom of Lydia they had a common practice among traders called touchstone and it came to mean a method of testing. im sure these people that are in this group so to speak. are of a friendly and hospitable nature. one having a sincere nature. to find interest it says. can be difficult to find someone that will listen. these woman are listeners and careful about everything. choosing their words, clothes etc. mentions Lydia may have been a woman of wealth too. it mentions allthough she is new to this belief she takes the initiative to show hospitality to Paul and his companions. also mention of material clothes. purple wool Tyrian purple dye. Solomons temple was furnished with purple wool. produced by an artisan from Tyre. and constructing the tabernacle tribe of Dan Ohoiab was a craftsman and embroiderer and weaver in the blue thread and the wool dyed reddish purple and coccus scarlet material and fine linen. exodus 31:6; 35:34; 36:1,2; 38:23. Egyptians were noted for their particularly brilliant dyed goods. eziekel 27:7. then Tyre and other Phoenician cities became important dye center. it seems just like a lot of things people had respect for tradesmen and their artistry even in clothing, dyes, material etc. it also mentions with books it is the same. and the bible is the most important book and has been the best seller for a very long time. so among books the bible is the most noteworthy. more importance and more fame than just about anything. it makes me think about clothes and books the says its not the cover but whats inside that counts. the person that wears the clothes is noteworthy. and whats inside the bible counts, not its cover that counts. amazing what gems (people) we can find hiding in places we might think are superficial or not very noteworthy. are women that understand what quality is. and can identify it and recognize it in the bible im sure.

Oh yes. Thank god for rich people with taste. (not really...)

Looks ok on the runway, on the public street......well...

What piffle Karl talks! How does he know she wouldn't change anything.anymore...she died! Coming from a 'designer'who has only ever plagarised and never invented and spent 40 years simply regurgitating everything Chanel ever created that's pretty rich!

All these beautiful garments are quite works of art no doubt. But for the majority of women especially ones who are homemakers with a family and responsibilities these are out of there reach . When a women is truly beautiful even the most plain and inexpensive dress will compliment her beauty .They don’t need to have 100s of feathers and shining trinkets hanging off them. Most of the wealthy women who buy these dresses just to say they bought that expensive name . Whether they really like them or not . Some women who make there children and family’s clothing like so many grandmothers of years ago . Those clothes that were hand made with love can not match any of this stuff . When children and people from all over go to bed hungry ,and when children and people don’t have shoes on their feet and no clothes on their backs then all this glamour has no worth while meaning .

I see why ungaro didn’t last. He’s a complainer

they would get a lot more respect if they would go VEGAN ! all you see now are styless people , without ethics or chic !

Fur ? Is he still doing that ? Fur is a killed animal simply for some fool to be seen wearing it on his/her back. Such foolishness. Such God damn cruelty to animals. Its simply POOR TASTE anyway you look at it. Damn designers don't have a concience. All for the love of money so they can live in castles. Thumbs down to this guy and every other designer that still uses fur in their collections. Thumbs DOWN here.

What's funny is that every single one of those haute couture pieces in this documentary look so old and completely out of fashion .....absolutely nothing is now wearable unless you a crazy person.. ....only kept in a museum at best.. ..Lacroix was probably the ugliest even in the 80s....he didn't last either in the fashion world....his clothes are worth 0$ today...that said it all......

I always get the impression that Americans are obsessed with couture…without having any idea what it is or how to describe it 😅
