specific character to the skin. Combined with an aniline finish, which is light and transparent by
its very nature, tanning imparts their characteristics to the skins, such as hues and wrinkles.

thank you for posting. by honestly, horrible. no imagination, I feel sorry for my SAs who would struggle to sell anything but Drew. I'm not expecting her to come up with fresh hip designs that will become It-bags that Chloe was famous for. but at least copycat something interesting.
ETA: oh and this puffed quilting on Drew already resembles something. Like Chanel, then Dior, than Saint laurent. Prints on leather, Givenchy anybody? Chloe used to be unique.

Well the slinky style chain straps are unique. Don't think I've seen those before.

I agree but I doubt it's much wearable. we'll see once reviews are out. quilting is so Chevron.

Actually, the statement chains are really big all around this season. Off the top of my head I'm recalling Phillip Lim and Sophie Hulme having large chains coming up, although these one from Chloe are different in shape!

Miu Miu/Prada have been doing it for a while.

This is horrible.

Chains are cool, Michael Kors kinda level. but that's all that new designer, head of he house has to offer? Kors is better though

personally I don't even wear bags with chains, they make noise and look cheapy (Chanel came up with chains on the bags as a tribute to her childhood in orphanage).,

Saw this on the blog initially and I was really disappointed, but I think it's just a transition phase with switching creative directors (let's hope so). The double-decker envelope looking bags... Not into it at all. It just looks tacky and reminds me of office supplies, 3-hole punchers and manila folders. If you carry anything bulkier than a sheet of paper, how are they gonna look? The statement straps too... just feel too trendy to the point that Karl said:

"Trendy is the last stage before tacky."

IMO the chains on the Drews look barely admissible. I can imagine long hair getting caught on those when used as a true crossbody... Just not good. The Drews looked fine before. I don't see the crazy straps as an improvement. They kind of remind me of cheap craft jewelry chains you find at Hobby Lobby or Michael's.
