The House of Worth was a French fashion house that specialized in haute couture, ready-to-wear clothes, and perfumes. It was founded in 1858 by English designer Charles Frederick Worth. It continued to operate under his descendants until 1952 and closed in 1956. Between 2010 and 2013 there was an attempt to relaunch the House of Worth as a fashion brand.
