The French fashion house is celebrating their 60th anniversary, the celebrations will kick off in September with an exhibition in Paris' Palais de Tokyo art space, curated by Judith Clark the exhibition aims to be a 'collage of ideas' in order to truly express the brand's spirit. A party will also be held in conjunction with the fashion house's catwalk show on October 1st. 

Along with the exhibition will come the unveiling a new flagship store designed by architect Joseph Dirand which will open in Paris' Rue Saint-Honore in November. The celebrations will continue into the new year with a coffee table book due in the Autumn.

 

Chloé also have plans of launching a capsule collection of re-edition styles, 16 classic pieces from the brand's archive will be re-worked and sold in Chloé flagship stores. Pieces included will feature the works of Karl Lagerfeld, Stella McCartney, Phoebe Phillo, and Hannah MacGibbon. 

Chloé has been a great launch pad for designers having launched both Stella McCartney and Phoebe Phillo, so it's a great thing that they are re-visiting the designers that have helped the brand develop into what we see today.

Céline

Celine, Fall 2011, PFW

Phoebe Philo produces yet another amazing collection, I’m really having a minimal moment over the past few days.

Phoebe really is a genius when it comes to coats, they are always so perfectly tailored and grown up, the orange coat adding a little playfulness into her latest collection. There always a sense of luxury with Céline, the pieces are presented without need for extravagance or mindless accessories, they speak for themselves. Everything is simple including the runway but still gives off a powerful impression.

Beautiful wood grain leather was also used, which really shouldn’t look sophisticated but it does. This Céline collection would be perfect for a work wardrobe too.
