That's So New York - I appreciate the fact that it must seem that I ramble on about Alex & Chloe at every given chance, and I won't deny that the majority of the time, that is indeed the case, yet when you receive the Alex & Chloe newsletter and are constantly being reminded that in two or three weeks there is going to be a new designer hitting the store, followed by a handful more the week after, the level of excitement doesn't exactly stay on the low.

The label was founded back in 2002 and uses a range of geometric-type monochromatic techniques and falls under the progressive category after presenting a number of designs which some may think "who on earth would wear that?" in regards to, whilst others may battle one another in an attempt to grab the very last piece off of the shelf in a number of internationally based stores, including the likes of Seven, Bonnie + Clyde's, ButterflySoulFire and Behave. The pieces which have recently hit the Alex & Chloe store include a range of knitwear garments which are most suitably fitting to the Fall/Winter period, yet again follow the basic monochromatic aesthetic of the label, accompanied by multiple geometric/printed garments which again present the aesthetic of the label, yet follow the same concept as the earlier pieces (in terms of print/shape,) as followed ...
