Background Worth:

Charles Frederick Worth was raised in Bourne, Lincolnshire, and apprenticed as a draper in London for six years atSwan & Edgars, which specialized in fine wools and silks. In 1845, at theage of twenty-one, he set out to find his fortune in Paris. He became an assistant draper atMaison Gagelin at 83 Rue Richelieu, where hewas to remain for over ten years, rising to premier commis. Among hisinnovations was the introduction of ready-made muslin dress samples from whichpatrons could choose a style; he would then match the choice to an appropriatefabric. At Gagelin\'s he met Marie Vernet, a demoiselle de maison whodemonstrated the features of the cloths as draped on a moving woman. They wereattracted to each other very early on, but owing to their limited incomes theydid not marry until May 21, 1851. Maison Gagelin showed several of Worth\'sdesigns there and although they caused great consternation in their departurefrom current fashion, Gagelin was awarded a gold medal for France.

In 1858, Charles Worth established the custom of sewingbranded labels into bespoke garments, created at Worth’s atelier in Paris, andwould prepare a portfolio of dress designs which were shown on live models atthe House of Worth. Clients would attend these shows, selecting a design, andspecific colors and fabrics, so a duplicate garment could be tailor-made inWorth’s workshop. Worth combined his individual tailoring with a formula andstandardization more characteristic of the ready-to-wear clothing industrytoday, which at that time was just beginning to emerge.

His sons, Gaston-Lucien (1853–1924) and Jean-Philippe(1856–1926), took over their father\'s business following his death in 1895 andsucceeded in maintaining his high standards. In 1936, the House of Worth showeda first collection at 120 rue du Faubourg Saint Honoré, under the direction ofa fourth generation of the Worth family, Jacques and Roger.

Worth was one of the first couture houses to extend its nameto luxury perfume. In 1924 Les Parfums Worth launched the first fragrance, DansLa Nuit and recognising that presentation was crucial, Rene Lalique, the worldrenowned glass-maker, was commissioned to design the bottle. Worth\'s grandsonJacques continued the tradition and with the perfumer Maurice Blanchet struckon the romantic notion of a fragrant love poem comprising five individualscents:

Dans La Nuit (1924) Vers le Jours (1925) Sans Adieu (1929)Je Reviens (1932) Vers Toi (1934)

Je Reviens remains the most famous and revered of Worth\'sperfumes. Encapsulating the romance and elegance of Paris in the 1930s, the perfume reachedformidable acclaim in the 1940s when it became a favoured gift from solder totheir sweethearts. It is a truly timeless classic, transcending styles andtrends. Je Reviens is currently being featured at the Harrods “Perfume Diaries”Exhibition by Roja Dove as the centerpiece of the event, amid some of theworld’s finest perfumes. Today the heritage edition of Je Reviens will beexclusively available at Harrods and will retain the classic blue architecturalridged bottle, which dates back to the perfume’s original in very good condition. Circa pre 1945.
