Lake Couture

If "Couture" is the design of fashionable clothes to a person's specific tastes and measurements, then "Lake Couture" is expressed as clothing explicitly designed for life on the lake with a casual and artfully stressed rugged flair. Each "Lake Girl" or "Lake Guy" likely has their favorite shoes to protect their feet and deal with water and walk on boats. It mixes bikini tops, shredded cut-off shorts, cropped shirts, hoodie sweatshirts, lifestyle quotes, and maybe a touch of sparkle, depending on the lake region.
"Did you see Jane when she showed up at 'Party Cove' on Memorial Day? She was decked out in Lake Couture, American flag bikini top, short-shorts, and a bedazzled $4 Bass Fishing trucker hat!"

Haute Couture

Haute Couture is a division of the fashion industry organized by the trade association named the Fédération de la Haute Couture (formerly the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture). In Haute Couture, High fashion Houses produce two collections a year and then make customized versions of the designs in the collection for individual clients according to their specific measurements. Haute Couture collections are the most prestigious and luxurious that exist in the fashion industry. The materials are precious, everything is studied in detail. And it takes about 200-500 hours or even more to create one of these custom-made garments.

Ferocia Coutura

The alter-ego and wrestling stage name of Project Runway Season 4 winner, Christian Siriano.

Mentioned in the "Raw Talent" episode, he states that 'Ferocia Coutura' would be his WWE Diva name, and that his signature move would be to spray girls in the eyes with hairspray, and then make an extremely tight ponytail on their heads until they bleed, as he additionally stated on a montage during the Reunion episode.

Possibly the name stemmed from the fact that designer Siriano has a tendency to utter one of his favorite personal catchphrases, "ferosh" (Ferocia), and that he has an eye for a high-fashion, couture (Coutura) aesthetic clearly evident in his designs.
Sweet P.: "Mine's for sure is 'Spread Eagle'. She's very seventies, and her move is 'The Thighs'."

Chris March: "Mine's definitely gonna be 'Wonder Woman', and she smothers men with her large breasts."

Christian Siriano: "Mine's gonna be 'Ferocia Coutura', and her move is... She sprays girls in the eyes with hairspray."

Sweet P.: "Oh my God, that's great!"

Chris March: "I love it!"

Cosby Coutoure

An indie style characterized by wearing tacky and blindingly multicolored sweaters (often from Goodwill or another thrift store), khakis, velvet sweatpants, etc. The goal is to imitate the look of the Huxtable family on the Bill Cosby Show. The tacky sweater is key.
Dude 1: Dang, look at that guy in the green, blue, orange, mauve, vermillion, and chartruese wool sweater.

Dude 2: Is that Coogi?

Dude 1: No man, it's Cosby Coutoure.

A situation in which one stores ther upscale wardrobe strewn across their entire home. It is achieved via trying on an outfit and then droping it on any available surface including, but not limited to, beds, desks, chairs, vanities, coffee tables, computers, and sleeping pets. Similar to a floordrobe.
I don't get hung up with keeping my clothes neatly in the closet. Instead, I prefer the free form of a couturenado.
