CHLOÉ presents EVERSTON





Introducing the EVERSTON bag – a new classic in the Chloé stable designed by Clare Waight Keller for Resort 2015, evoking the carefree attitude of the Chloé girl. The EVERSTON plays a confident game of contrasts between feminine curves and masculine structure – executed in the finest grade Italian leathers and finished with polished gold hardware. A tactile blend of smooth, nappa calfskin and sumptuous grained leather combines with the exotic touch of ‘Ayers’ watersnake to create accents of both texture and tonality. Bold yet soft colourways complement the Spring 2015 ready-to-wear collection, with hints of beige rosé, blush nude, hazel brown, stone green and cobalt blue.

The charm of the Everston lies in its pragmatic allure, as unexpected details are transformed into decoration that embodies the free-spirited, feminine essence of the Chloé DNA. Crafted in both large and medium-sized versions, its top-opening design features a soft, rolled frame set wide apart that conceals an oversized gold zipper, with hand-painted contrast edges that highlight the balance between structured geometry and the generous planes of vegetal leather. A dual system allows the Everston bag to be worn two ways, reflecting the independent and dynamic lifestyle of the Chloé girl. Firstly, an adjustable saddle strap allows the bag to be worn over the shoulder and slung low on the hip for an effortless, urban attitude. Secondly, the EVERSTON transitions into an elegant handbag with double-rolled handles and a piped horseshoe detail that finishes its subtle, 70’s-inspired design.
