Chloe's 2012 F/W Collection took my breath away. The contrast between soft and dark palettes, and the voluminous and structured silhouettes makes such a beautifully feminine collection. I like how designer Clare Waight Keller describes it as:
“It’s about a British girl falling for the classic elements of Paris . . . pearls, lace,” said the designer, a British girl who moved to Paris last summer when she assumed creative direction of the house. Asked just how autobiographical this inspirational narrative is, Waight Keller conceded with a laugh, “I really like it here. It feels a lot more grown-up.”
The clothes strike the perfect balance between effortless and put-together. I'm not so much in-love with the lace fabrics, but the tailored coats, chunky maryjanes, and soft pales are incredibly beautiful. Her vision is cohesive and well-executed. I can easily imagine the woman behind her inspiration.
