CHLOE AND PARRIS GORDON
Fashion designers and founders of the label CHLOE COMME PARRIS
Chloe and Parris started creating collections while still in school at NSCAD University.
Chloe moved her graduation collection home to Toronto in May 2010, which was
quickly picked up by two Toronto boutiques. Shortly after the move, their craft quickly
caught the attention of Dwayne Kennedy of The Collections, who then offered “CCP”
a show in Toronto Fashion Week’s SS’2011 season and since then the brand, CHLOE
COMME PARRIS, has not stopped producing amazing pieces. Appealing to a younger
demographic and having a great understanding of what their following’s needs are, Chloe
and Parris have definitely brought back the interest of outsiders to Canadian fashion.
Since showing at New York Fashion Week in September 2012, the fashion duo has
established their brand globally, now venturing into the e-commerce world. Commitment and passion are crucial qualities to break into the fashion scene - Outside of work
we are committed to practicing Moksha yoga, and seeing as much art and fashion as we
can - says the duo.
Being raised in the arts, thanks to their mother, who constantly engaged in artistic/fashion
related activities, has definitely given Chloe and Parris the upper hand when it comes to
creating beautiful garments. -Giving us paint and paintbrushes on blank paper to make
wrapping paper, trips to holt Renfrew, weekend ballet and music classes, gallery trips,
treating vogue as a bible, giving us copious amounts of art and fashion books, did make a
difference- says the duo
To the talented sisters, being happy is having the privilege of doing what they love, and
being able to share the work produced, the happiness and love it brings with family and
friends.
