Chloe Sevigny opens her new collaborative line
By: Cherrypop
Indie screen queen and quirky fashionista Chloe Sevigny has unveiled her second collection with fashion label Opening Ceremony at London Fashion Week recently. Designing menswear for the first time, the 34-year-old former face of Miu Miu said that the collection was a “slight homage” to one of her favorite designers, Miguel Adrover, with dashes of “gay lumberjack,” James Dean, preppy New England and English punk.
“There’s much less pressure doing men’s, and because this collection is unisex and oversized, I felt like I could have more fun,” she said in a recent magazine interview.
Although designing is just a sideline - she was showing this collection in between filming Mr. Nice in Wales and Spain - the Golden Globe nominated actress said it’s a passion. “I love pouring my creative energy into fashion during my downtime,” she said.
However, this isn’t the end of her work with Opening Ceremony though. She wants to continue designing for them, but would also consider other projects. “Maybe I’d do a very small collection for one of the big luxury brands,” she said. “But right now, Opening Ceremony is right - we have a shared aesthetic
Chloe and the label have also collaborated on a selection of footwear, including two-tone Weejun loafers and saddle-shoe boots. Other accessories include checkerboard scarves, fabric backpacks with plastic patch pockets and beanies. Prices for the items start at US$95 for a fringed scarf and run to US$945 for an overcoat.
The line is available at Opening Ceremony in New York and Los Angeles and stores including Barneys, Colette and Dover Street Market.
