Worth was inspired by a love of fine art, luxurious fabrics and his vision of the female ideal. He was the first to set out to dictate new styles and silhouettes to his elite clientele — not the other way around — hosting them in his rue de la Paix salons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese salons included ground-breaking 'sportswear' and 'maternity' departments, as well as silk, velvet and brocade rooms. There was also a special salon with closed shutters and gas lighting, designed to allow clients to try on ball gowns in lighting conditions precisely matched to those of the event.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOrganised chronologically and illustrated with striking ensembles, \u003cem\u003eThe House of Worth\u003c\/em\u003e includes photographs of details that reveal the garments' intricate construction and craftsmanship.
