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