Chloé<br />
Spring <strong>2018</strong><br />
A sensual ease flows throughout<br />
the Chloé collection for Spring<br />
<strong>2018</strong>, as flared and flouncing<br />
shapes are tempered with an edge<br />
of military cool. Exotic motifs<br />
evoke a sophisticated bohemia<br />
in the sultry heat of Palm Springs<br />
– chasing the sun from dawn to<br />
dusk.<br />
Subtle embellishments abound,<br />
adorning the languid silhouette<br />
with a crafty hand and moments<br />
of flamboyant rock glamour.<br />
The soft, desert palette rises<br />
from tones of pearl grey, butter,<br />
optic white and sand through icy<br />
pastels to inky blues and deep<br />
berry shades.<br />
Windowpane checks and<br />
dungaree shapes are a graphic,<br />
boyish aside to the romance<br />
of crochet ponchos, bibbed<br />
blouses and lavallières encrusted<br />
with ruching and inset lace. Fan<br />
pleating, smocking and waterfall<br />
ruffles imbue tiered dresses<br />
and blouses with an airy sense<br />
of movement, as textured cape<br />
volumes float from a plunging<br />
neckline or gather as ample<br />
ballooning sleeves.<br />
Double breasted tailored jackets<br />
and coats are adorned with trailing<br />
buttons and cut with a round<br />
raglan shoulder, whilst trousers<br />
are cut loose and low as washed<br />
and distressed denim jeans or<br />
kicky tailored flares. Patch pocket<br />
saharienne shapes emerge as city<br />
shorts and a lace safari jacket,<br />
and metallic moiré jacquard or<br />
scrolling metallic florals infuse a<br />
decorative nostalgia through long<br />
evening dresses. A cornucopia of<br />
delicate handiwork abounds, from<br />
signature Chloé scalloped trims to<br />
macramé and tablecloth lace.<br />
