Chloé

Gaby Aghion founded Chloé in 1952 and helped invent luxury ready-to-wear as an alternative to couture. It is great at romantic blouses, the Paddington bag era, and a soft femininity that still feels young. Fun fact: Aghion hated stiff couture fittings and wanted clothes a woman could actually live in—radical in 1950s Paris.
