See by Chloé: Catch that cool girl charm

With its everyday luxury style signature and grown-up girlish charm, See by Chloé has been a my-wardrobe favourite since we launched more than six years ago, so the announcement that Isabel Marant’s protégé Laure de Sade was taking over the design reigns at this, our little Parisian princess, got us all hot and bothered –just how much better could the line be?

Needless to say, we’re super impressed! Putting the look of the modern city girl under the microscope, Laure has nipped and tucked her personality into a more streamlined effortless sophistication peppered with brilliant urban twists. Yes, aw12 is shaping up to be one of the best seasons ever.

Look out for a collection of premium just-so knits, uniquely tailored outerwear, silky skirts and boots – oh the boots, the luscious suede boots! – that will make your heart sing. In varying gauges of transparency, metallic flecked jumpers and space-dye wool tops and dresses are perfect for layering over luxe jersey while cashmere used with draped cowl necks ups the snuggle count tenfold. Beautiful wool coats and cropped two-tone jackets with leather sleeves skim the hip or hit those fingertip lengths perfectly and printed skinnies that whisper of trends (but are never a slave to them) all equal a wardrobe to-die-for.

Thank you Laure de Sade, we can see you’re looking after her well!
