Chloé Gets a Salute in Paris "Chloé Attitudes" is the name of a new exhibition that opened in Paris at the Palais de Tokyo with a cocktail party Friday night during Fashion Week, though there was little attitude in the way you might associate with the fashionista crowd. In fact, there was a rather touching moment, when Karl Lagerfeld, probably the longest running of more than a dozen designers who have worked at Chloé during the label's 60-year history, made a surprise appearance. Mr. Lagerfeld, when he walked into the gallery, was mobbed by reporters and camera crews, but he pushed through the crowd and made his way directly to the far corner, where Gaby Aghion, the sprightly founder of the house who is now in her 90s, sat in a chair, taking in the scene. Ms. Aghion said she was delighted to see all the young people who had come for the exhibition, giving meaning to her life's work: creating a label that has resonated with women for its embrace of classic femininity with a sometimes sassy tomboyish flare. She and Mr. Lagerfeld talked for a few moments and posed for photographs, then Mr. Lagerfeld made his way into the exhibition. Asked about their conversation, he said, "She's funny." The exhibition, organized by Judith Clark, the English curator, is an impressive survey of Chloé's history, organized by themes of lightness, graphic prints and energy. It also reveals a surprising degree of playfulness, as seen in the works that include embroideries in the shape of light bulbs or a pair of scissors shown cutting up the back hem of one gown.
