French for 'high' feminine is haute and masculine is haut. It does not have to be paired with the word Couture (meaning sewing) The 'H' is not pronounced. haute is pronounced like OAT.
It's one of those words really misused and misunderstood in English
It does NOT MEAN hot.
but when used with the word couture, meaning to sew, it means , High Fashion. Or sophisticatedly made clothing.
Haute montagne = high mountain, la haute Égypte= upper Egypt.

Haute
...actually DOES have a meaning on its own, and doesn't have to be paired with "couture". It means "fashionably elegant" OR "high class" OR simply "fancy"...

adj.
Fashionably elegant: “In Washington, haute gastronomy is at least as important as the national economy”...

Haute means "high" in French. It is pronounced "hote", NOT "hot". It is used most commonly with the word "Couture" (pronounced catore) which means "fashion" in French. Thus, Haute Couture means High Fashion.
It does not, however, mean hawt, hot, sexy, whatever. People who use haute in place of those words are idiots who seriously need to read the REAL dictionary instead of urbandictionary.com.
That Vivienne Westwood trench is so haute couture.
