CATWALK: CHLO : The Complete Collections
, Thames and Hudson , 2022 Hardcover, 632 pages, ENG, 280 x 190 mm, NEW, dustjacket, with 1100 coloured illustrations !. ISBN 9780500023839.
The first comprehensive overview of Chlo 's collections presented through catwalk photography, published in collaboration with Chlo to celebrate the house's 70th anniversary in 2022. Founded by Egyptian-born Gaby Aghion in 1952, Chlo 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 Chlo 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 Chlo before exploring the collections themselves, which are organized chronologically. Each new era in Chlo '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, Chlo 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.
