I used to look forward to Chloé

Me too !!

Most of these would look better with heels, but they still wouldn't look good...

It's truly horrible . I give her a season considering the unstable environment there.
It oscillates from frumpy to frumpier.
Where is the detailing that is the house signature?
If the suits think they are going to sell this better than Paolo Melim Andersson they are grossly mistaken.
There are SO MANY revolving door changes at these houses it is impossible to remember who is where anymore!
Why didn't they go after Phoebe again, she just got hooked by someone else!!

That's a very good question...

Maybe they thought she was too pricey? Or maybe she didn't want to go back?

I want my Paulo back!

Me too, I used to love his collections. Or Phoebe's Though it's not so bad, I like some pieces

I love the metallic pieces. That gold lame' top is so great, kind of an update of the Brenda Dickson/Dynasty look. And the metallic dhoti pants are gorgeous, opulent and ethnic. I also love the pale pink sweater with high-waisted ivory pants on Natasha and the red leather shorts. Those looks are very Chloe IMO.

That said, there is way too much frumpiness in the skirts to make this Chloe. And the shoes are really ugly, I hate thong straps on heels!

But overall, I think this is a step in a better direction for the brand. I wasn't into Paulo's futuristic graphics and shapeless chiffons.

The silhouettes look like icing on birthday cakes.

I can't say I am disappointed because I had no expectations for it.

This is just awful. So unflattering. Jelly shoes! Scallops. Ugh, my dislike for what I have seen so far is bordering on hate.

^i agree that these are very chloe! i'm loving them so far.
i use to love phoebe's designs to death and paolo came along to design what was very new and modern for chloe. not that they were bad, but i can't help but to miss the little touch of girlie vintage aesthetics that was clearly absent in paolo's designs.
how i wish they brought phoebe back for chloe too. judging from the few imgs of mcgibbon's work, maybe we're on the way back to the familiar chloe that phoebe created years ago. those metallic fabrics are definitely spot on for ss09. trendy and fashionably vintage!

I want Paolo back....

The black dress with the bow at the back in #33 reminds me of Alice in Wonderland.

 

[gossiping]

Not impressed.. ugh!

 

[Manuva]

What is this? All the designers since Phoebe left don't really seem to know what to do with Chloe, or what exactly the Chloe woman is.

I must say I don't really know either.

 

[leblue15]

I hate what I see so far!! horrible unflattering silhouettes, I hate those semi cicles on the coats, the proportions of the pants and shorts are bad.

 

[satin chic]

I like the shorts, but everything else is so frumpy and unflattering. And those metallic pants are awful.
