Clo@Yu-ki

Five happened to come across a small shop, which was particularly nice.

Above the shop is a sketch, in a childlike style. You can make out a name if you look at the right way and puzzle a bit (de-Chloe or de-clue)….

...makes....."Clothes for You"

Chloe Yue, seen in the drawing, apparently Chinese, making clothes "4 a yonug GRIL", for a young girl. The profile says Chloe Yue, which fits well with the puzzle. And in the text of the profile is written: 香港人,居於荷蘭, which I don’t understand at all…..

The shop itself is very simple, just a few transparent panels of bluish glass. You really have to look into it a bit to see the creative poetry of the clothes. Just what Fives likes to do….

The clothes on sale are obviously made by hand, not in a mechanical way, and the prices are very low, another sign that the person designing the clothes is not having a commercial goal, but is still having a lot of fun inventing and making them. Going back there from time to time you may see some items added, but not very often.


Five particularly liked the backpack for, well for only 10 L$. The design is very cute: flowers and cherries, but if you look closer, the flowers are interspersed with….skulls. This makes the thing more than just something nice. Also the hang-blouse is a thing Five has never seen. Your sweater, as worn on a day which suddenly became hotter than you thought, in a knot around your waist. Five wears it very often.


The flex mini-skirts are really very mini, and as with all Chloe‘s designs, having a sharp edge. Discover this on your own!
The name “sjallie” for another item, a free gift, gives away a strange clue, and looking further in the profile you discover that Chloe Yue doesn’t only speak Chinese, but also dutch!
The only negligible disadvantage of the “sjallie” as well as the “hang-blouse” are that they cannot be resized, which almost forces you to become a small person when wearing these items…..but the items are well worth it.
