Style Icons as Designers

Chloe Sevigny for Uniqlo

For a limited time, the Japanese brand Uniqlo is collaborating with actress Chloe Sevigny, featuring a line of t-shirts designed by Chloe herself. Also producing unique designs in this line is Japanese actor Tadanobu Asano. The line is all about self-expression, and considering how much of a fashionista Chloe is, I'm excited to check out her designs!

This automatically opens up the brand to all those who look up to this celebrity and can often lead to some truly remarkable new designs.
