Chloe Catwalk | The Complete Collections

DETAILS

Founded in 1952 by Egyptian-born Gaby Aghion, Chloé pioneered luxurious ready-to-wear fashion that emphasized lightness and femininity, offering an elegant haute bohemian style for the modern, liberated Parisian. The resolutely contemporary house discovered and hired the young Karl Lagerfeld as early as the 1960s: he stayed for over two decades, achieving worldwide fame and recognition through his Chloé work, before Stella McCartney (and her then assistant Phoebe Philo) directly succeeded him from fashion school.

This authoritative publication begins with a concise history of the House of Chloé before delving into the collections themselves, which are arranged chronologically. Each new era in Chloé's history begins with a brief overview and biography of the new designer, while individual collections are introduced through a short text revealing their influences and highlights, illustrated with carefully curated runway images. An extensive reference section, including a detailed index, rounds out the book.

Following Chanel, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Yves Saint Laurent, Prada, Vivienne Westwood and Versace, Chloé is the eighth in a series of high-quality cloth-bound books offering an unparalleled overview of the collections of the world's leading fashion houses, complete with original catwalk photography.
