i, alike Amy Fine Collins in this month's Vanity Fair, have faith in the future of couture:

I would love to join the ranks:
"Just two Americans have ever been classified as haute couturiers—Mainbocher (retired 1971) and Ralph Rucci, who was accepted as a guest member in 2002. (After five years and 10 collections, a guest may advance to full membership.) "
which means I will at some point be living in Paris :)
"an haute couturier is a designer who presides over the creation of hand-finished made-to-order clothing, in a “laboratory” that employs at least 20 workers in Paris"
