After the Paddington and Paraty handbags, and the Marcie shoulder bag, Chloé has another must-have arm candy called Alice.
The French fashion house founded in 1952 by Gaby Aghion with business partner Jacques Lenoir continues to create romantic yet street-chic designs.
With the brand’s latest handbag, feminine codes get revamped with a slightly sporty vibe.
Made of supple leather and enhanced with python or vegetable-tanned leather, the ’70s-inspired bag has Chloé’s trademark origami-like finish and topstitching.
Enhancing their latest handbag’s versatility is the detachable strap that makes it easy to use for both casual days and dressy nights-out.
Take it from socialite Olivia Palermo who effortlessly paired it with edgy leather bottoms and loose comfy shirt, and actress Jessica Alba who went for a more polished look with a navy blue blazer worn over a bustier and black tights.
The 60-year-old luxury brand has had renowned designers Karl Lagerfeld, Stella McCartney and Phoebe Philo at the helm. Its current designer is Clare Waight Keller, who transformed heritage label Pringle of Scotland into a contemporary fashion brand. She maintains Chloe’s elegant daywear aesthetic not only through its distinctly modern yet sophisticated clothes, but also through its understated accessories.
The bag’s two-toned look in soft chalky shades of sunrise and husky white or rich dark tints like hot chocolate and fir green contrasted with black trimmings. It is also made more luxurious with new gold hardware.
Chloé’s warm feminine aesthetic gained a huge following among style icons like Jackie Kennedy, Brigitte Bardot, Maria Callas and Grace Kelly, and continues to appeal to celebrities like Natalie Portman, Kirsten Dunst and Lou Doillon.
Even tennis player Maria Sharapova has joined the Chloé craze as she sports the functional carryall bag that’s not just an “It” bag, but also a must-have for stylish women on the go.
Chloé is available at Adora, Greenbelt 5, Ayala Center, Makati City
