Chloe Sevigny Speaks About Age, Style and Men in Elle

Self professed "Hollywood outsider" Chloe Sevigny is showing off her legs and talking style in Elle magazine this month — the brand new issue is out on Saturday! You can take a peek behind the scenes of Chloe's cover shoot and also read some excerpts from her interview before it hits newsstands right here, where she talks about her style, dressing age appropriate, men and more:

  • On her style: "There are definitely some things I look back on and say, 'What was I thinking?' but I don’t think anything’s been that crazy. If those outfits had been on Kate Moss, they would have been fine, but because it’s me... I mean, sometimes the things I wear are a little weird, but not like Björk or Lady Gaga weird. I wish I could pull things off like they do, but I can’t. I don’t think about it too much, because I like what I like. But I do look at those stupid party pics and give myself anxiety."
  • On how it's changed: "I hate the whole idea of things having to be age-appropriate, but I guess I’m starting to think that way. Like, I really want floral Dr Martens. But I’m 35 years old. Can I really wear floral Dr Martens? Although I did wear a dress that had smocking to a party not long ago and it reminded me of a piece of candy. I looked like a perverted woman dressed like a five-year-old, but who cares? I loved it."
  • On boys: "Men are intimidated by me. My friends say, 'You have to find someone more famous and successful than you, or someone who’s so happy with their own life they can handle the attention you get.’... I want to be worshipped and adored, but then again I also love to be ignored. Hurgh! It’s the same old, same old ... For some reason, all of my friends are obsessing over the boy situations in their lives. I was out to dinner with three strong, capable, intelligent young women the other night and all they could talk about was men. I was like, 'If you don’t change the topic in the next five minutes, I’m leaving.' My life is not going to revolve around any guy. But there is something to be said about all of these beautiful women and no men around. Where are they?"

To read Chloe's views on being a Hollywood outsider, and her thoughts on age, looks and babies, just read more.

  • On age, looks and babies: "I’ve just started doing yoga three times a week, I feel strong and limber, and my sex drive is through the roof!... Getting older doesn’t bother me at all. Well, other than the baby pressure. I do want to have a baby."
  • On being a Hollywood outsider: ‘"I never really felt embraced by the community. I remember meeting an actress on the up who I really admire, who said to me, 'I might not be the queen of Hollywood, but I’m definitely in the court.' I would never even begin to think that way ... For a while, I was doing more commercial press, making more mainstream choices, going to certain parties, stuff like that. I tried to look a little bit more [she makes air-quotes] “accessible”. It turned out my version of accessible wasn’t really all that accessible."
