Haute Le Mode

“If you’re looking for a channel that talks about fashion in the most fun, sassy, bitchy, and analytical way… this is it!” This is the tagline of Luke Meagher’s YouTube channel, and he’s not wrong! Haute Le Mode is a fashion channel dedicated to informing viewers about the ins and outs of the fashion industry, from the runway and red carpet reviews/roasts to informative videos on fashion history and general industry knowledge. Meagher informs audiences about the industry through memes and hilarious commentary met with critical attention to detail that makes fashion’s exclusive exterior more relatable.
