I think the best definitions would be:
la haute couture: high fashion (literally, high dressmaking or sewing), but this usually refers specifically to extravagant, hand-crafted, often one-of-a-kind high-end gowns
I think you mean l’artisan – the craftsman
une asion de couture: I don’t know what asion is…did you mean maison? That would make this a fashion house, as in “the house of dior”
un mannequin: a model (can be a living model or a tailor’s dummy)
un defiel de mode: I think you mean un defile de mode: a fashion show or fashion parade
le pret-a-porter: ready to wear
le tissu: fabric
Answer by NaniHaute Couture: high fashion, Dior, Jean Paul Gaultier, Chanel
Artisant: same thing in english artisan, craftsman
une asion de couture? Do you mean maison de couture?
Maison de couture: House of fashion, fashion house, where the designing, planning, and everything that goes into a fashion brand takes place. A studio, and etc (House of Dior..)
Un Mannequin: A model, Iman, Tyra Banks ,and etc. Also a dummy, a bust, or something in the shape of a human’s body, that’s not real. Used to drape clothes over.
un défilé de mode: A fashion show, think of the fashion week’s in the fashion capitals…New York, London, Paris, and etc. At Bryant Park in New York.
