Boudicca Paris Haute Couture
“Ready to wear is like skin and couture is the whole piece, how it touches you and the outside”

- Zowie Broach
January 26 marked the arrival of BOUDICCA to Paris haute couture, only the fifth British fashion house admitted to the hallowed Chambre Syndicale. Showing in the once-opulent Romanian Embassy, BOUDICCA presented 11 pieces including a beautiful long column dress in silver with swing of mink.

The designs, each made to order, cost between £5,000 and £10,000.
