Introducing Chloe
Check out Chloe in the product named after her. We are excited to be able to support not just weavers but the seamstresses who make these. As you know we love products that are versatile. The ‘Chloe’ is a stunning dress from toddlerhood and becomes a great top as you grow. You can tie the straps to make them a halter and keep them long for more of singlet look.
