Chloé's large namesake sepia-beige basket bag is crafted in partnership with Mifuko, a social enterprise based in Kenya that's a member of the World Fair Trade Organisation. It's artisanally made from fair trade paper that's treated with a water-repellent finish and smooth leather by a weaver whose name is hot-stamped at the front pocket, then suspends from two topstitched shoulder straps.
Founded in 1952 by Gaby Aghion, the original Chloé girl, the label is regarded as one of the essential postwar brands, alongside Yves Saint Laurent and Christian Dior. With icons like Karl Lagerfeld as former head designers, Chloé continues to draw upon its rich heritage of beautifully designed pieces, widely featured in publications such as Grazia and Harper’s Bazaar.
