Abstract

The founder of the “haute couture” (high sewing) field, the Englishman Charles Frederick Worth, put the costume of the late 19th – early 20th century on a new stage of development in the scale of decorative and applied arts. This high idea was picked up by famous couturiers, interpreting it in their creative manner. Among them, there are the following bright names: Poiret, D use, Paquin. Fans of their talent were very wealthy and demanding, so the masters of the costume had to invent new styles every week. It should be emphasized that the art of high-quality sewing was perfectly manifested in Russia. A genetic sense of beauty and a sense of proportion gave rise to exquisite samples of evening dresses, which were worthy of competing with the costumes designed for the oldest royal families in Europe. Domestic workshops, or, as they were then called, brands (firms) managed to establish themselves in the Russian textile market. Some of the Russian fashion houses of the 1890s and 1910s received international recognition, for example, the workshops of N. P. Lamanova.
