This word is the opposite of "haute couture," or "high fashion." Basse couture fashion represents the glorification of the common and cheap, instead of the rare and expensive. "Basse couture" is a term that can especially apply to hipsters.

The best and most glorious of the instruments, although ridiculously large and loud. The strings are E, A, D, and G, also known as Death, Ok, Nice, and Good. The bassist's job is to act as a metronome (and to keep the violins from rushing). Be nice to them, they try their best.
Person A: Hey, I just started playing the string bass!
Person B: Good choice. It's totally the best instrument.
