Actress-designer Chlo??? Sevigny marks the debut of her new line of unisex menswear with this limited-edition hardcover volume. First called on to model her collection of tweedy wools, Fair Isle knits, and animal print jacquard sweaters, Chlo???'s redheads became muses for a project focusing on the curious place of red hair in our culture. Curated by Sevigny, Reds features contributions from Slater Bradley, Peter Coffin, Matt Damhave, Brian DeGraw, Joe DeNardo, Brendan Fowler, Jess Holzworth, Matt Keegan, Karen Kilimnik, Nate Lowman, Marlene McCarty, Jack Pierson, Rob Pruitt, Aurel Schmidt and Kon Trubkovich. Original works by these artists accompany images by David Armstrong, shot on location at the photographer's townhouse in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. In addition, redhead lore from Lily Ludlow explores centuries of redhead mythology, which variously described the fair-skinned, freckled breed as temperamental, magical, unlucky, jolly, beautiful and deviant.

Seller's Description:
Very Good. No Jacket. Rangas. Carrot tops. Gingers. Or most crudely of all-blood nuts. Judging from the plethora of none to PC monikers for redheads, you'd think a mop of rouge hair was a curse instead of a charming genetic point of difference. Thankfully for those who possess red hair, Chloe Sevigny opts for the latter train of thought in Reds a new hardcover art book in support of her Opening Ceremony fashion line. Opening Ceremony explains the publication thus: "Rather than document her collection with the standard, ephemeral lookbook, Chloe Sevigny decided to commemorate the debut of her new line with a limited edition, hardcover artbook that captures the designer's singular point of view...The book began with one simple idea: red hair. Chloe felt redheads were the perfect models for her line of grey tweeds, animal print jacquards, Fair Isle knits, subtle dark plaids, pink flannels, and bright red wools.".
