Who? Charles Frederick Worth ( 1826-1895) was an English dressmaker who found fame in Paris and became known as “The Father of Modern Haute Couture”.

Style and design? Opulent and incredibly expensive gowns, many of which were redolent of earlier centuries. Worth was also recognized for introducing the crinoline. This cone-shaped contraption, made up of cloth and metal, was used to support expensive petticoats/skirts and became the fashionable mode of dress, mainly through the patronage of Empress Eugenie of France.
