This clothing is basically designed and manufactured for specific clients with "made-to-measure" technique. The fabric and design of this high fashion clothing is costly, which is stitched with minute attention to detail and finish. In fact, the term can be used by only by the companies that are the members of the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture.

Ready-to-wear: Although, these garments are not meant for specific clients, but then also, a lot of attention is given to choose the proper fabrics and their cuts. Only a small quantity of these garments is produced to maintain exclusivity. Even though, they are not as expensive as Haute Couture but still they are presented during fashion weeks. Most of these collections are manufactured under the labels of fashion designers or under any fashion company labels for whom designers have made it. It mainly includes day wear, evening wear, lingerie, sportswear, bridal wear and accessories.
