An oxymoron: Rebel is to oppose and resist structure and order. Haute Couture is distinguished by set parameters and rules to be adhered.

Rebel Couture is a contradiction in terms: a protest with decorum that embraces and ridicules opposites simultaneously. It is when high-end meets street culture and has a love-in whilst throwing shades at the conformity to class and subculture through the medium of fashion.

Often results in the hybrid of styles e.g. sartorial and athleisure.
Example: Silk Dupion ball gown with random placed, dripping graffiti stencils of the Chanel inverted C's logo; that's 'Rebel Couture'.
