INSIDE CHLOË'S CLOSET
Sevigny's bold and brash tastes go way back.
Style: A little vintage, a little designer, with room for the eccentric and eclectic.Muses: Her father, who died in 1996, "had impeccable taste in people, clothes and music. He was listening to the Flying Lizards and Joe Jackson records when I was a kid. And next to Deborah Harry, my mom is the most beautiful woman."
Biggest influence: Her brother, Paul, a stockbroker turned DJ. "He was a skate punk kid and I wanted to be whatever he was. He's still incredibly stylish. He only lives three blocks from me in Manhattan."L.A. versus N.Y.: With all its paparazzi, L.A. is a little more trouble. "The Eastside is definitely not so bad, which is why I love being here."
Best physical asset: Over dinner, she guiltlessly admits to a stomach pooch. But it's her legs she learned to love and showcase whenever possible. Steve Jones, the former Sex Pistol, "started calling me 'Legs' and it stuck. Maybe it's about getting older, but I feel better about that body part than when I was younger."
Weakness: Black ankle boots to the current tune of 20. "They're just a staple of my wardrobe since junior high. I guess I feel confident, a little tougher. My favorites now are my Tara Subkoff for Easy Spirit, Robert Clergerie and Jil Sander."
Chic eats: Dominick's, Caf– Stella and Edendale are regular haunts, but none beat the Pacific Dining Car downtown. "I love the steaks. I love the formality of it."
Favorite vintage: Original YSL, Chanel (Coco era), Holly Harp, Azzedine Alaia, Thierry Mugler.
Making a statement: "I always think my features are so big that I need a bold piece of jewelry. I'm not really interested in jewelry created for delicate little birds."
Last word: "You hear about these actresses who avoid going to fashion shows lest they not be taken seriously. I don't like going because it's such a circus. It's always anticlimactic. But I'm not ashamed to admit it: Fashion is superficial, but I love it."
