Chloé blooms in Paris with vintage-inspired floral elegance

NN ONLINE:

Chemena Kamali brought a poetic burst of florals to the Paris Fashion Week runway on Sunday, presenting a Chloé collection that celebrated focus, femininity, and flow — true to the house’s storied spirit.

In her third tenure at Chloé, Kamali drew from the label’s rich legacy, blending romantic silhouettes with structured ease. Founded in 1952 by Gaby Aghion, Chloé revolutionized Parisian ready-to-wear with its free, feminine style — an ethos Kamali continues to nurture.

The show opened with soft prints and widened into pearlized yellows, layered coats, and knotted skirts. Pastel drapes, ruched gowns, and ’80s-inspired shoulders defined confidence and movement, while dropped hems and fluid tailoring evoked Karl Lagerfeld’s 1970s designs.

Balancing nostalgia with modern clarity, Kamali’s Chloé radiated “romance with discipline” — clothes that evolve naturally, made by women, for women.
