From blonde screen siren to red-haired tomboy, Chloë Sevigny can assume many and changing hair colour aside, is certainly as diverse a model as any. Although now known predominantly as an actress, she was hired by Sassy magazine in the mid-nineties due to her enigmatic street style.

(Before its time? It’s 20 years since this magazine feature was published; it seems nothing has changed?)
As well as working for the magazine, she did modelling work before moving onto acting in 1995, starring in the controversial, Harmony Korine movie, Kids.
A year later Chloë Sevigny was the face of Miu Miu Spring/Summer ’96 ad campaign (shot by Jergen Teller). Her short cropped hair and androgynous look, lent itself perfectly to the label’s, fresh young look at the time.

It’s 16 years later and she is back as the face of Miu Miu‘s A/W ’12 ad campaign (Shot by Mert Alas); complete with cup of tea and perfectly printed trousers.

As a pretty big fan of both model and label, I think that Sevigny’s intangible cool and Miu Miu‘s eccentric chic are, once again a perfect collaboration.
Though featuring in its ad campaigns twice, Sevigny has remained a fan of the brand throughout; wearing pieces in both magazine editorials and at events on numerous occasions.
