"It" Girl
In 1994, Chloë Sevigny caught the eye of writer Jay McInerney, who declared her the new "It" girl in
a seven-page article for
The New Yorker. Thus,
The Last Days of Disco -- which follows recent college graduates navigating life through New York's nightlife -- became a coming-of-age tale for Sevigny both on and off screen. The prior years had seen her meteoric rise from Connecticut transplant to the toast of the town, and mark a maturing sense of style and presence.
