Creative director Clare Waight Kellers takes the Chloe Pre-Fall 2014 collection back to the happy, hippie-filled 60s.
Inspired by a 1966 archival photo of a Chloe blanket coat, Keller decided to surround the entire collection around that hit fashion craze from so long ago. Featuring a line of intricate blanket coats from blush pink wool-infused greats to dynamically designed wrap arounds, there is something for everyone's style. Though the coats are the show stoppers, The Chloe Pre-Fall 2014 collection also offers sheer animal-printed dresses that flow with the utmost elegance and grace, as well as simple striped mod dresses and tailored pants that prove that the blanket coats aren't the only 60s influenced fashions.
This collection is a blast from the past and dripping with all the 60s fashion favorites.
