In celebration of C hloé 's sixty years anniversary, the brand has unearthed its archive for Chloé Attitudes , a retrospective at Paris' Palais de Tokyo. Curated by Judith Clark, the show—the first exhibition dedicated entirely to Chloé in the brand's history—will feature 80 dresses by each of the house's nine designers; sketches by Lagerfeld and Antonio Lopez; and photographs captured by the likes of Helmut hotel loasi rome italy Newton hotel loasi rome italy and David Lynch.
Speaking about the exhibition, Clare Waight Keller , Chloe s present Creative Director said: "I thought the exhibition needed to surprise the visitor as much as I was surprised looking at the archive," : Floral looks will be displayed against a backdrop of the floral yellow tiles from Saint Germain's Brasserie Lipp, where Aghion held the first Chloé fashion show and went often, for example, or Lagerfeld's beaded shower dress installed beneath an actual silver showerhead, which, spouting crystals, magnifies the surreal nature of the design. Naturally, Lagerfeld's famed violin dress, as well as Lopez's iconic rendering of the frock, is included, along with Stella McCartney's racy 2001 pineapple-print bathing suit, Hannah MacGibbon's popular leather shorts and cape ensemble, and a selection of headpieces Clark had borrowed from the late Anna Piaggi. Unexpected elements of the past, like afro hairstyles that Angelo Seminara pulled from a seventies-era runway show or a wheat display case inspired by the Fall 2009 ad campaign ( left ), run throughout, offering a comprehensive glance into the house's legacy.
The celebration will also have legs online with Chloé Alphabet , a digital interface that showcases select images from the archive, as well as five short films by Poppy de Villeneuve, Julie Verhoeven, Kathryn Ferguson, Stéphanie Di Giusto, and Mary Clerté. And come February, the brand will be reissuing limited editions of 16 iconic pieces, like the abovementioned violin dress and the Paddington bag.
