Rare peek into Chanel atelier: What goes into making an haute couture gown? 

Having been behind the scenes at couture fashion shows in Paris what surprised me is how even a lot of the clothes that end up on the models bear a very loose resemblence to what the designer actually designed. When the seamstresses are interpreting the designs they often say "that shoulder won't work, this seam would be far too high, the lace on the neckline is too much, this needs a bow on the back, the underskirt isn't flattering" and make serious adjustments. They then show the final result to the designer who almost never questions the alterations to his or her design. What you see on the runway is often 50% the creation of an anonymous workroom and 50% the general silhouette and colour/fabric _suggestion_ of the designer.

Good design

Great style have dream on...

If an auntie wears this gown will she looks young and beautiful like models

1:06 LoL. Not everything is handmade. Sewing machines are still used, even in couture.
