Chloë Sevigny’s Runway Debut

Last night, Chloë Sevigny, who in many ways is the ultimate anti-fashion Fashion girl, held her own runway show. The New York scenester/actress/too soon for icon? has been designing clothes with her friends at Opening Ceremony since 2007 and if you’ve walked down a street, any street, in lower Manhattan you’ve probably seen them, but last night she got to create an entire scene.  She chose a high school gym on Mulberry (appropriately enough, it’s the site of the New Designer’s Market) and set the stage with an installation from her good friend Chris Wing.

“A lot of the collection plays with good and evil and dark and light and I saw them sort of shearing the white lamb which is the good lamb and they’d slayed the head of the dark lamb, like our inner conflict,” she said of the orange and black characters and their contrasting animals.  “I thought it was very fitting. I liked the vibrancy of it. I wanted people to come in and have something to look at and something that would set a mood and kind of you know just, this is kind of the reckless sense of danger like something’s going to happen.”

If you’d paid attention to the CFDAs the night before, you’d have another hint of what was to come.  Chloë designed herself a one off in the spirit of her resort collection.  The looks, which expertly mix white eyelet and perforated black leather, had a third collaborator: Vision Streetwear.  “It reminds me so much of my youth, it has the strongest sense memory, I think when a lot of people see that, kids my age or older, it’ll be really effective. I mean vision was like the biggest brand and the star skateboarders were like rockstars back in the day.  It’s just so iconic,” Chloë said. She stopped just short of bubbling enthusiasm though:  “Unfortunately it’s only clothes.  And not that exciting,” she said. 

On the latter part at least, we beg to differ. Click through to see all of the pics!
