Chloe teemed with sparkling detailing at Paris Fashion Week Thursday.

The lofty Grand Palais, decorated with giant gold totems had starry guests to match — including actresses Katie Holmes and Kate Bosworth — and added to the glint of the stylish fall-winter 2020 collection.

Here are some of the day’s highlights:

Designer Natacha Ramsay-Levi clung to the floppy and boho house DNA forged in the 1970s. Long silvery organic earrings followed foliage-like necklaces, silver eyelets on collars, shiny rings and bracelets, gold handbag chains and buckles. The columns glimmered in the background.

But even though the French designer piled on the detailing — in the polka-dot gowns, contrasting textures, floral prints, giant long silk ribbons flowing down from the neck — it never veered into heavy-handedness.

Styles moved from the retro, such as one checked knitted sweater worn with loose leather pants in autumnal copper, to the ethereal: Silk lace gowns cinched at the waist with an almost Balkan-looking angular silhouette on the torso. It made for an accomplished show.

Chloe is credited with inventing the concept of ready-to-wear clothing, and this show impressively trod a path between the insouciant ethos — one that doesn’t try to impress too much — that is the house signature, and a quasi-regal style.
