Real Way - Chloe

To recreate the Chloe Ready-to-Wear look (see runway post below), you might choose some of the following relatively inexpensive items.

Of course you need a cute floral print dress (avoid table-cloth/drapes prints). All of the following are from urbanoutfitters.com.

Next choose a nice coat to keep your warm until spring weather arrives. All of the following are from forever21.com.

Finally, add a few accessories (urbanoutfitters.com). The Chloe runway featured cute spring purses, tights, and booties.

Just put your hair in a loose braid, add a bit of dark lipstick and you are all set to look like you just walked off the Chloe runway!

Runway - Chloe

One of my favorite Fall 2008 Ready-to-Wear shows was the March 1st Chloe show, designed by Melim Andersson. The pieces were inspirational for both fall, and spring/summer transitions. Andersson incorporated a lot of sheer layers, summery flowered dresses, beautiful overcoats, and fine details. He used mostly navy blue, purple, black, and white.

This is one runway show where I feel I could actually wear the pieces. I absolutely love the summery floral dresses. When worn with tights and a coat, they can easily be transitioned from fall. Sheer layers can be worn with a cardigan or tank top for a unique spring-time look.

Andersson's pieces in this collection are so simple, yet the detail makes them so unique and striking. There are many more photos where those came from. See style.com for more!
