 Fantasy
in Design...
Vancouver based collection
Chulo Pony is a fantasy in design. With each collection based on a
fantastic old world story, the pieces take shape with rich, feminine
details. A collaboration between Chris Kopeck and Crystal Heald, the duo
pairs modern styles with truly vintage details... the latest season was
born from a tale of wandering puppet maker and marionette. We find the
tops especially are rich in detail with lots of texture and pattern.
Originally an intimate apparel designer with Vogue Bra, Chris Kopeck has
been designing clothes for 10 years. As Chulo Pony’s Creative Director,
she oversees the design of the line each season. Her innovative designs,
which focus on the impeccable fit and clever design details, have made
Chulo Pony’s collections sought after worldwide.
Crystal Heald was the Director of Merchandise for Sarah McLachlan for 14
years before she decided to start the fashion label with Artwerk’s
Creative Director John Rummen in 2002. As Chulo Pony’s Art Director,
Crystal is responsible for the ornate embellishments featured on many of
their key pieces ranging from the layered silk-screening and foiling to
the delicate hand-stitched embroidery.
Chulo Pony’s clothes are for women with an individual sense of style who
want clothes that are feminine, flirty and fun to wear. No taking
themselves or fashion too seriously, the designers inject all aspects of
the brand with their trademark irreverence — from the amusing stories
with their imaginary muses that provide the backdrop to their
collections each season, right down to their content labels imploring
each wearer to “Love Me, Wash Me.” |
