Sevigny is a favorite of trendy magazines (she first graced the cover of Interview before Kids even came out), and she has modeled for a number of designers and brands, including Miu Miu, H&M, and MAC Cosmetics. But Sevigny is far from fond of her iconic status: “For some reason the public has embraced me as a fashion icon, and I feel like it has diminished me as an actress, or I don’t get as much recognition as an actress, and that upsets me”.
