Innovations in Craft & Design
Chloé revolutionized luxury ready‑to‑wear with light construction, soft tailoring in silk, georgette and broderie anglaise. Its leather goods—hand‑stitched Marcie, Paddington's padlock hardware—blend craftsmanship with wearability. Under Hearst, the brand embraced upcycled textiles and transparent sourcing; Kamali now re‑energizes its signature boho heritage.
Vogue India: “Chloé injects lightness and freedom into every silhouette.”
