The term “It Girl” tends to be overused and is borderline meaningless at times, but when you’re talking about Chloë Sevigny, it’s an ideal descriptor. In her self-titled photo book—published by Rizzoli and boasting a foreword by Kim Gordon—Sevigny’s eclectic and truly personal style is explored, from her days as a teenager interning for Sassy to being the face of Miu Miu.

From her shaved head and overalls to grown-up Lolita looks, Sevigny’s style is impossible to pin down: she bounces from androgynous to ultra-feminine, grungy to glamorous—defying time, gender and stereotypes. More impressive still: she does so effortlessly.
