Chloë in ‘The Guardian’ February issue
Believe it or not, but I have news of yet another Chloë magazine feature. UK magazine The Guardian recently sat down with Chloë for an interview regarding her Opening Ceremony clothing line, fashion and Big Love for their February 16 2008 issue. She furthermore shot a beautiful photoshoot for the issue, which will be added to our upcoming, new gallery. Read the interview in its entirety at TheGuardian.co.uk, here’s an excerpt:
Earlier that day, over lunch, she is frank about her disdain for the lucrative modelling gigs - Miu Miu, Dolce & Gabbana, H&M - that not only pay her bills but could also settle those of most of her East Village neighbours. “The shoots can go on, like, for ever,” she complains, sinking a fork into her salmon terrine. She used to worry that modelling diminished her as an actor in people’s eyes, “but the lines are blurred now. Look at Charlize Theron - she’s done so many ads.” I ask if there isn’t a side to modelling that makes her uncomfortable. “Oh, like the selling out, you mean?” She gives a wheezy, high-pitched laugh that sounds like a tent being unzipped at high speed. “Yeah, that’s not so much fun. But fashion is a good way for me to make a living. I couldn’t survive just doing independent movies. And I’d rather do modelling than movies or TV I didn’t like.”
She is in good spirits, but there’s a restlessness just below the surface. She seems unduly bothered by a waitress’s orange shirt. “What is this, Guantánamo Bay?” she splutters. Another server asks if we need anything. “Wow, she has a funny voice,” she says when the woman is out of earshot. Even a compliment proves equivocal. “They’re very helpful here.” Pause. “A little overhelpful.”

Chloë in current or recent ‘Uniqlo Paper’ issue?
International Herald Tribune reported earlier today that Chloë Sevigny is featured in an exclusive interview in a current or recent issue of Uniqlo Paper (US). I speculate this could be either No. 2 or No. 3, but since I do not have access to this publication in my country, I cannot check for myself. From the International Herald Tribune:
In Uniqlo Paper, there is photography by Terry Richardson, modeling by Devon Aoki and an exclusive interview with the actress Chloë Sevigny.
Women’s Wear Daily further reports that Chloë was recently photographed for a number of Uniqlo adverts. From WWD.com:
Chloë Sevigny was not the happiest of campers Tuesday night at the Bryant Park Hotel’s Cellar Bar, where she hosted the launch of Samsonite’s Black Label Trunk Collection. The scenester was out until the wee hours the night before at the bash she hosted at Webster Hall. “I’m just really tired,” said Sevigny, clad in vintage yellow Ungaro. “I was out really late, then up shooting Uniqlo ads all day.” Other than the raucous rage schedule, what else about fashion week gets the downtown diva’s Wolfords in a bunch? “Fashion week makes me feel very self-critical,” she explained. “Like I’m not wearing the right thing or looking the right way. It’s stressful.”
If anyone is able to keep their eyes peeled for this issue or Chloë’s Uniqlo ads, or has any additional information to share with us, please do not hesitate to get in touch! Thank you.
