Voiceover for Chloé S/S ’15 Show.
-I am going to be talking a little bit about my
favourite pieces from the Spring/Summer 2015 collection from Chloé, shown at
Paris fashion week.
First off, this collection was dedicated to Gaby
Aghion, founder of Chloé in 1952, who passed away this past September.
And the collection was designed by Creative
Director, Clare Waight Keller.
I feel like this collection went down a very French,
folksy, 70’s theme. A lot of crochet and billowing fabrics were shown, making
it, in my opinion, a very fun and feminine collection.
SHORT WHITE DRESS IS SHOWN –
I love this first piece. It’s really pretty, girly
and fun. A really great way to start things off, it screams spring.
I really like the way that a similar looking; little
floaty white dress is shown again at the end of the show, to really round off
the collection, which, obviously, you will see later on.
FALLOW COLOURED DRESS IS SHOWN –
The colour of this next little dress is gorgeous; I
would probably describe it as a Fallow Brown. – This whole collection seems to
be built on jewel tones which historically/classically are thought of for
Autumnal attire/garments.
And you will notice, all the bags featured are made
using a warm chestnut leather which are really fluent throughout.
And everything accessories-wise, be it bangles,
rings, earrings, buttons or the hardware on the bags; are all a light gold
colour which, again, adds to the warm feel of the collection.
The colour translates so well with the fabrics that
are used for each piece. All have been created with very light fabrics and some
sheer which, really reflects the season.
If any of the pieces, especially the little dresses,
are without sleeves, all feature very delicate spaghetti straps. This allows
each piece to hang with more weight so the fall is stunning.
All or most of the models are laced into knee-high
or ankle-strapped sandals in an antique pink blush colour with a slight wedge.
My favourite pieces in this collection are the
longer boho style dresses. They look so elegant and artisan but at the same
time look very day wear. I love the fact that all feature excess material, but
seem to have been cut on the bias so this leads to them hanging beautifully on
the figure.
Here is the last dress shown, which I mentioned
earlier, rounding off the collection perfectly.
All in all, I really love this ready-to-wear collection,
I think it has been done in a really elegant and dainty way but really fun and
playful at the same time.
