Fun Fashion Fact
Did you know that during the Second World War, French couturier Lucien Lelong, who was also president of the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture, persuaded the Germans to allow French couture houses to remain in Paris instead of being moved to Vienna or Berlin. Thanks to his efforts, over ninety fashion houses were kept running throughout the occupation of Paris from 1940 to 1944.
