  • Charles James, né en 1906 en Angleterre, est un créateur de mode anglo-américain considéré par ses pairs comme un grand couturier, voire un sculpteur. Charles James a marqué l’histoire de la mode et continue d’exercer une influence sur certains créateurs de mode. Innovant, en perpétuelle recherche, il est particulièrement reconnu pour ses somptueuses robes de bal et les coupes très complexes de ses modèles. Il débute dans les années 1930 et, incroyable couturier mais mauvais vendeur, cesse ses activités en 1958 auréolé et ruiné. Qualifié de « génie de la coupe », sa carrière n'est qu'une succession de recherches artistiques, créations magnifiques, échecs commerciaux et soucis financiers. Il meurt en 1978 à New York. (fr)
