Chloe Sevigny’s new project

posted 19.02.2008

This lunchtime I treated myself to a spot of window shopping down at uber-cool store, Dover Street Market. And what did I find nestled down in the basement between House of Holland and Zandra Rhodes? The hotly anticipated collection by my favourite starlet Chloe Sevigny for Manhattan’s hottest shop, Opening Ceremony. Finally, a celebrity collaboration I can get excited about. The brightly coloured floral dresses, super-cool hot pants and modish trousers mix Little House on the Prairie with 50’s rockabilly, and it’s easy to imagine Chloe sporting every piece – this is distinctly quirky rather than trend-led.

It’s not cheap – we’re talking more The Row from the Olsen twins than Lily Allen for New Look – and prices start from around £150. Nonetheless, I have a feeling that it will prove a hit amongst the more adventurous of the fashion pack. Top of my wishlist? The black suede wedge boots with a chunky silver zip up the front. If you want to check it out get down to DSM (who are exclusively stocking it in the UK) fast or just click here for a closer look at the whole collection.
