Chloë Sevigny's Epic Clothing Sale Draws Crowds.
A monumental sale of castoffs from the closets of Chloe Sevigny, Lynn Yaeger, Sally Singer, and Mickey Boardman, and past seasons’ pieces from the menswear-inspired brand the Academy, organized by writer Liana Satenstein and her team of vintage-fashion enthusiasts, caused a frenzy in New York. Shoppers loaded their arms with piles of sheer white dresses, Depeche Mode T-shirts, and vintage dresses in geometric 1970s prints. The sale offered a wide range of items, including filmy antique blouses and bulbous Comme des Garçons dresses and coats. The event was a temporary utopia where the value of a garment isn’t merely the label, but the story behind it.
