She’s the kind of person we would prefer to see at Met Gala!

[@Smorgasbord.]

Yes, absolutely.

[@uniteddancestyles3852]

Agree

[@UMullerOfficial]

Absolutely

[@kaileecannady]

YESSSSS queen would slay

[@brittperreault272]

She is the queen of couture! ❤

[@karadizon4299]

Christine is quite intellectual when it comes to fashion. She’s very knowledgeable and passionate about fashion.

[@CoachKarter215]

She doesn’t even know how long it takes to make things .. 10’s of thousands of hours lol no ma’am

[@richiethev4623]

@@CoachKarter215 it's a form of over the top expression. example here when i say to my son "i told you a million times over already not to leave your dirty plate on table so what i need to say it some more million times to tell you to put your plate in the sink" or another example when i go all dramatic and state "it took me all day & night to make that two layer cake" it obviously took me some time but defiantly not all day/night🤣🤦🤣

[@NS-xt5wv]

What she doesn’t have is taste though

[@coolrunnings3]

She doesn’t seem to know the difference between ‘couture’ and ‘haute couture’ . . . 🤔

[@tlakinkadimeng3218]

@@coolrunnings3 whats the difference?

[@hoangthuctrang98]

You can tell she has a lot of heart for the arts from the way that she gets very personal about the haute couture here. I wished that shows more in BE

[@lifeofmichaely3556]

Totally you can see her face lit up and her energy changes whenever she talks about the details of couture fashions. I think that is genuine, of course their lives are not typical, thats why they are entertaining ... lol

[@brittperreault272]

I totally like her taste when it comes to her couture pieces.❤

[@angelaw9006]

as a fashion design major I truly appreciate how informed she is and buys them bc she loves them not based on money

[@worthigirl2946]

I wish you would have shown us how these beauties look on you!!

[@whiteheaven2011]

I was wondering the same!!!

[@ebilxmel]

They probably wouldn’t have fit since they are all sur mesure

[@TommieYouKnow]

Same

[@quynhhuongngo1024]

She wore lots of them in bling empire season 1 and 2

[@DMHN84]

There’s certain humbleness in the way she describes her pasión to clothes and relationship with the houses, just as I feel about my bakery or barbershop, and that’s really nice.

[@shelle0shelle0]

Tone tinged with respect 🙏

[@brittperreault272]

I love how she speaks! Very humble.

[@lifeofmichaely3556]

Dont care what some people say, love her, she is classy, sophisticated, a fashion icon. Everything looks good on her. She is real and say it like it is.

[@ackamazing]

yeah I'm obsessed shes gorgeous and so sophisticated

[@fadleadam]

@@ackamazing I HATE HOW anna treats her like shit, christine was literally trying to start a charity with anna and anna said no...shes disgusting

[@erique_k]

She wouldn't know class or sophistication if it hit her in the face.

[@jasminefranc5889]

Love when the celebs really appreciate the craftsmanship of the things they purchase, and not buy just because they can afford them.

[@dannychu2014]

Damn I thought she was going to wear each and every one for us to see. That would have been awesome. Love Christine on the show. A classy woman that hates confrontation but can go fire with fire when needed.

[@ObservingtheMatrix]

That’s what poor celebs do to show us their ready to wear. These pieces are extreme delicate and sewn by hand. I don’t expect her to throw them all on without proper assistance and hair and maker up etc -

[@sophialx7531]

Well maybe not put it on but at least show photos of her wearing it

[@brittperreault272]

I love how Christine shares her knowledge and passion about haute couture, she is so classy and talks with so much humility.

[@mariabellini4485]

I love her. I watch Bling Empire, and while I also like Anna Shey, I’ve always thought she was too hard on Christine. This video confirms why I love her. She is gracious, well-spoken, articulate, intelligent, and charming. And I respect her love, passion, and respect for the designers and the fashion houses.

[@multi4any]

Stuck in the custom, so risqué, sitting next to Charles. This is such a Christine story

[@MsSarita8]

Yup 🤥

[@uzaxna72]

she really couldve shown some respect and bought another dress. She just didn't want to wear anything less than 1k

[@multi4any]

azu fg she didn’t want to wear anything period, especially next to Charles lol

[@katt_da]

The way Christine describes her collection makes me appreciates her more. She speaks so well❤

[@Kennedy749]

i cant wait for Haute La Mode to react to your collection, you have amazing taste and great stories behind each piece, I loveeee

[@nicolechien2694]

If anyone is wondering it was Kerry Washington who wore the giambattista gown. Stunning on both ladies !

[@lpinto]

Thank you I needed to know who it was!!!!

[@hollyalexis604]

The celebrity who wore the allegedly one-of-a-kind Giambattista Valli dress was Kerry Washington

[@fernandoangon1129]

I love the love, passion and respect this woman has for haute couture and the hard labor that goes into creating such pieces. She’s sincere, captivating and most of all humble about owning such items. Thank you for sharing! ♥️

[@Retrobutterfly1020]

Truly she has more poise, glam and charm than all the influencers invited to the met gala combined. She is the type of woman you want to see in that carpet because she clearly had a pasión for fashion and a respect that those children lack.

[@samgrantham8137]

I would love a Haute Le Mode review of this video

[@joellelanderos4009]

Christine Chiu is very knowledgeable and so classy. Love how she supports these fashion designers.

[@elleyu9837]

We need a video (or a montage video) of Christine wearing all of these!

[@katied2318]

Her heart speaks fashion and elegance. She’s truly a fashion icon for me. Love her to bits!❤

So special she shared her pieces! They are amazing ❤ it does makes haute couture be appreciate and elevated as it should be. Loved the video

[@mariosantana5767]

Sorry to say Haute Couture doesn’t mean there’s only one it’s VERY limited and only for people who can afford it but all it signifies is that the house will make the clothes custom fitted to your body. A house only makes a one of a kind for only the most important clients

[@pa5666]

Thank you. Something seems very off to me about her. I'm not sure if the houses are lying to her but she seems much less educated in haute couture than she's trying to come off as.

[@pachiayang1853]

I really like Christine. She's kinda goofy and has great sense of style.

[@vew4612]

Obsessed. Now how about a video of the rest of her closet?

[@shesarrived7690]

Yes please!

[@georginakaval2707]

i can def tell she is a classy woman. i am excited to see her in the next bling empire season.

[@brittperreault272]

I love what she wore when she met King Charles and Camila.❤

[@BIGTODD250]

Sorry..... but she is incorrect. They will make several of the same items for different women who can afford, it. Yes, they may make very subtle changes for each woman to fit her, but it is still the same item. However for very VERY special clients they will design/make one-off items.

Take a shot every time she says “Haute Couture” - but I love that Chanel number

She seems so much softer and nicer season 2 than she did season 1… wonder if it’s an act because she didn’t like how she was viewed

[@AlexisVidaMedinaLim]

Well, she's now a mother and how she's being portrayed will be seen by her child when he grows up. But I've seen her DWTS training clips and she's not as catty as people think. I like that she knows her privilege and how she still believes the value of hard work.

Haute couture is not only 1 of 1s, they have a runway for them for clients to see and purchase if they want. They only thing that might make haute couture pieces 1 of 1 comes down to the price and who can actually afford it.

She is so beautiful, stylish, elegant….. great acting presence that there is no need of her to do this video….she shines no matter what she wears….

[@Fashionover50plus]

Its really interesting about haute couture because as a former designer and knowing how the industry works its not what you think. People spend thousands of dollars on these clothes and at the end of the day they really cost no where near what they pay. People try and make things so exclusive and to be honest its fabric, sewn together by a tailor to fit your body. I could go on and on about the reality of it all but I wont.

[@K100-b3e]

Yeah, she said another celebrity wore it too. Looks like those fashion houses tell rich people what they want to hear to make them part with their dollars.

[@dejavu011]

She said so many contradictory things .. her favourite item is a jumpsuit because it is functional, practical, and comfortable; and comfort is everything. But functionality, practicality and comfort are the farthest things from haute couture fashion! I wonder which haute couture item she has worn more than once to an event that it was made for? ..On average, a garment takes tens of thousands of hours to put together??? Yeah, maybe if you include the time it takes silk worms to spin silk fibres for the fabric. She went to London, to an event at Buckingham Palace with only one 'risque' dress in her luggage, and another one on the way? to London - where she probably shops couture all the time for her collections - and she didn't have a single contact, or anyone to get in touch with, who could lend her a dress suitable for the function? Or, indeed, she didn't even have an hour to hop out in London (where there's everything and anything for any budget) to buy a formal dress?

[@rayarusho9555]

@@dejavu011 oh my god I thought the same! 10,000 hours is 416 days STRAIGHT with no break. If you assume 8 hour days, 5 days a week for 50 weeks a year, that equates to five years of work!! On one dress. The whole time. Lol.

[@swapnagupta370]

@@rayarusho9555 no she is right, SOME dresses can be 10,000 hours. But typically multiple designers are working on it, they just count the time each designer spent on it, even if it over laps.

[@stingdogs]

Hmmm I think she’s mistaken believing that haute couture means it’s a unique piece and that no other client will have the same design. Nevertheless, she looks to be enjoying having these pieces, so good for her!

[@pa5666]

Yeah, she's completely mistaken. If that were the case, there wouldn't be any haute couture fashion shows because it would be a first come first serve. Wealthy people just like feeling special but the truth is if you have the money, they'll make you anything.
