Chloé



Chloé
Spring-summer 2014 campaign

Last weekend of summer – golden light – serenity
smiles & whispers – making memories – complicity


The story

The Chloé mise-en-scène is about a sisterhood, a friendship. 
The specific story is hidden so the viewer is able to enjoy the beauty of the moment in a poetically artful way; generating a sense of time and space as well as setting a mood and suggesting the character’s state of mind. Lou Doillon asks questions invoking thought, inviting women into the world of Chloé. The sound is of summer: the natural environment, birds, crickets, wind, the laughter and joy of two women. The behaviour between the women is very strong yet soft. The emotion of Chloé is captured.

“I wanted to capture those care-free moments when girls are alone together. To reveal the shared moments of connectedness, when the masks fall away and everything is easy and natural.”

Clare Waight Keller, Chloé Creative Director

 

The photographers

This campaign sees the renewal of an iconic partnership between the Chloé Maison and photographers Inez and Vinoodh. First joining the Chloé family in 2004, Inez and Vinoodh have since shot several memorable campaigns for the brand. From Dewi Driegen and Caroline Winberg running wildly through the Jardin du Luxembourg to the sultry black and white fragrance portraits, Inez and Vinoodh bring a confident dynamism to their imagery that captures the attitude, effortless beauty and sense of nonchalance of Chloé.
"We love our work with Chloé since it gives us a chance to create images and films that express women's friendship, complicity, and hopes for the future in a light and playful manner."
Inez and Vinoodh


The girls

Lou Doillon – The talented French artist is a new face for Chloé. Clare Waight Keller was drawn to Doillon’s effortless sense of style and authentic femininity.

Julia Stegner – Radiant and confident, the German model captures the natural lightness and elegance that has become synonymous with Chloé girls.

‘(Im)possible’






‘She danced, and was obliged to go on dancing through the dark night. The shoes bore her away over thorns and stumps till she was all torn and bleeding; she danced away over the heath to a lonely little house. Here, she knew, lived the executioner; and she tapped with her finger at the window and said:

“Come out, come out! I cannot come in, for I must dance.”’
 
The Red Shoes, Hans Christian Anderson

 
The dance of death must end. Trapped in its hostile environment an animal will die.  It will try to leave. It will leave but there is nowhere to go. The models are people who have a home like you and me. We must stop Climate Change to avoid our total catastrophe.
Climate Revolution working with Environmental Justice Foundation asks you to help Climate Refugees by filling in the postcard on your seat and we will send it to Ban Ki-moon.
I wrote:
Anyone who gets home late from work and finds she’s forgotten the key. What a disaster!
My home is my refuge.

I believe it's essential we bring economic and ecological intentions into alignment, and establish more cooperative systems, to protect our planet and its people. I do believe this is possible.

Lily Cole, Vivienne & Andreas have been long-term collaborators and friends. Together they created her iconic dress for the Met Ball 2013, which was made from wild, sustainable rubber from the Amazon, as part of Lily’s work with Sky’s Rainforest Rescue campaign.
Today's project was developed as an ‘Impossible’ wish for Lily to support Vivienne's Red Label Spring-Summer 2014 show.
Impossible.com - founded by Lily Cole - is a vision of society that values human relationships and freedom of expression. First and foremost it hopes to build a culture of giving and receiving through creating a new social network, to be released in the coming months.
