The first comprehensive overview of Chloé's collections presented through catwalk photography
published in collaboration with Chloé to celebrate the house's 70th anniversary in 2022.
With 2.5 million copies in print each high-end cloth-bound volume in the bestselling Catwalk
series features over 1 100 looks as they originally appeared on the catwalk styled as the
designer intended and sported by the world's top models. These ten treasure troves of
inspiration are must-have references for all fashion fans and professionals. Founded by
Egyptian-born Gaby Aghion in 1952 Chloé pioneered luxury ready-to-wear that was all about ease
and femininity offering an elegant haute bohemian style for the modern liberated Parisienne.
Resolutely contemporary the house spotted and hired a young Karl Lagerfeld as early as the
1960s: he stayed for over two decades achieving fame and recognition worldwide through his
Chloé work before Stella McCartney (and her then assistant Phoebe Philo) succeeded him
straight out of fashion school. This definitive publication opens with a concise history of
the house of Chloé before exploring the collections themselves which are organized
chronologically. Each new era in Chloé's history opens with a brief overview and biography of
the new designer while individual collections are introduced by a short text unveiling their
influences and highlights and illustrated with carefully curated catwalk images. A rich
reference section including an extensive index concludes the book. After Chanel Dior
Louis Vuitton Yves Saint Laurent Prada Vivienne Westwood and Versace Chloé is the
eighth in a series of high-end cloth-bound books that offer an unrivalled overview of the
collections of the world's top fashion houses through original catwalk photography.
