Who was the first real haute couturier of Victorian England?

Answer Posted / guest

In 1857 the Englishman Charles Worth set up a Paris fashion
house at 7 Rue de la Paix a then unfashionable Paris
district. In 1858 he made a collection of clothes that were
unsolicited designs. He showed the clothes on live models
and when people bought his original designs he became a
leading fashion design couturier of the Victorian era.
Until that time fashion details and changes were suggested
by the customers. The House of Worth became a leader of
ideas for the next 30 years.
