Chloé Hand-Embroidered Art Skirt — Paris

An extraordinary Chloé hand-embroidered skirt, originally purchased in Paris, France, and preserved in beautiful condition.

This remarkable piece feels as much like a work of art as a piece of fashion. Crafted in a sophisticated charcoal-grey fabric, the skirt is covered with intricate, free-form embroidery in black, cobalt blue, red, ivory and subtle touches of yellow.

The hand-worked stitching creates a series of abstract, almost sketch-like figures across the fabric, with intentionally trailing threads and irregular lines giving the surface a wonderfully expressive, artisanal quality. The effect is reminiscent of an artist's preliminary drawings translated directly onto fabric.

The long, fluid silhouette and asymmetric construction allow the embroidered imagery to move with the wearer, making every angle of the skirt slightly different.
