The One
Uno card decks, stretch mermaid gown base, tag gun stitches, 2026
Made from regular sized and jumbo sized Uno cards, The One is a ready-to-wear and one of a kind gown. Inspired by my collection of childhood games, many of which I kept for much of my adult life, this fancy frock reminds us that if you play your cards right you can find new kinds of beauty in tried and true classics.
Big Deal
Playing cards, velcro with adhesive, staples, bobby pins, 2025
How many cards does it take to make the big, red, big deal? If you can guess you’ll win your very own deck of cards…In a fit of creativity on new year’s eve (2025-2026) I decided to get all dressed up with nowhere to go. It was one of my favorite holiday celebrations to date, a simple date with my imagination, culminating in Big Deal.
Money Bags
Monopoly money, Monopoly houses and hotels, Monopoly game pieces, cotton purse with plastic handles base, tag gun stitches, glue, 2026
Monopoly money at its finest, this wearable purse is covered in the classic currency. With hotel and house handles, and game piece embellishments, this showstopper accessory will wow at any gala or game night.
Art
Visual art has become an essential component of Chloe’s expression. Her 2026 collection, Ephemera’s Epilogue, is crafted from various ephemeral items (many of which are often discarded after their initial fulfilled purpose) and consists of several 3D wearables. Some of the pieces were made over several years’ time, paying tribute to much of her young adult life.
This bricolage curation provokes the viewer to ask questions about consumerism, commercialism, advertising, and inequality in finances, age, gender, and race.
