I'm super excited!!! I feel fashion has been in a rut lately and needs a little kick in the pants!

I'm excited to see all the changes ahead! I think a huge part of what's made Chemena's time at Chloe so great is that she does what so few creative directors put in charge of heritage brands seem to: look to the archive. She refreshed what the brand was already about and made it relevant for contemporary shoppers rather than trying to reinvent the wheel.

I'm excited as well! Fashion has been in a rut for a while now. I agree, Chemena honored the feeling of Chloe and would add that she naturally is the Chloe girl and perfect for the job.

I think my vote will go to a touch of the '70s, though it was a busy decade in world events and politics. I was a university student in the 1970s so I'm maybe a bit swayed by that. However in terms of fashion it was a gentler, more feminine time both for men and women.

I'm with you, the 70's had great fashion that is often overlooked Halston was a huge influence.

I'll be watching Chemena Kamali at Chloe, she's very inspired by the 70's and think that will be a big influence. I would love that gentle femininity you speak of to rise to the top. It's all cyclical!

These are heady days ahead…. Let’s see what comes down the runway… Guccifying Valentino is a tough one to swallow, but I’m curious to see …… Chanel’s new chapter will be very interesting.
