Chloé Resort 2011

It's been a while since I've reviewed a collection--however I've still been entirely caught up on recent runway shows.

Hannah Macgibbon never ceases to amaze me. This collection retained Chloe's aesthetic, but added a tinge of comfort and relaxation, making all the essential pieces so wearable and oh-so RESORT. With a few boxy silhouettes here and there, tailored jackets and fitted pants--everything stayed absolutely cohesive. The neutral color scheme worked fluently throughout the entire collection, even with a couple of blue shades.  Other pieces (not shown) did a well juxtaposition of textures, including velvets, leathers, and suedes. Lastly, leave it to the beautiful shoes to complete the collection. Chloe always leaves me waiting for more.
