60 years of attitude

Reaching sixty years old certainly is a beautiful age for any of us and it sure is amazing especially for a luxury fashion house today. Founded in 1952 by the Egyptian Gabriella Anoka (aka. Gaby Aghion), the Parisian house of Chloe is celebrating its 60th year this year with 70 archived pieces and sketches in an exhibition entitled Chloe. Attitude. An attitude that has been stylized from Karl Lagerfeld, to Stella McCartney, Phoebe Philo and now by Clare Waight Keller. A brand that has so much history yet so little was known to the public even after all those years loved by Jane Birkin and adored by Sienna Miller in the recent years. Thanks to the curator Judith Clark, it is a forgotten fashion lesson that is definitely worth to learn for all of us. Paris Fashion Week will end in 3 days so it is definitely worth it to check it out before November 18th, 2012.
