Chloé’s greatest hits

When Natacha Ramsay-Levi began as Chloé’s creative director in March last year, the instinctively chic Parisian designer assumed the legacy of a fashion house dating back to 1952, which meant inheriting a vast accessories archive with its highly recognizable and coveted bag designs. Just like the A-listers who are spotted carrying Chloé – think Blake, Charlize, Reese and Rosie – this bag is so famous that it needs little introduction beyond its one-word name…

Instantly recognizable by its iconic gold ring and chain, the Faye collection has expanded over the years to include a wristlet style, a mini bag and a backpack. Since its popularity remains unwavering, the range is seasonally updated in a variety of covetable colors – each one proving widely popular. Largest among them is the medium Faye; crafted from a tactile mix of suede and leather, its slim flap-front silhouette belies two roomy internal compartments and a zipped pocket. Swing it over your shoulder or detach the strap to turn it into a striking clutch – whichever way suits your style, you will share a connection with all the other Chloé girls – think Veronika Heilbrunner, Pernille Teisbaek and Camille Charrière – who can’t stop Instagramming theirs.
