<p class="MsoNormal"><em>Harper’s Bazaar</em> has all sorts of fun ideas tucked up its couture sleeve. The latest: recreating the <strong>Marc Jacobs</strong> spring ’08 runway show as a spoof, to be snapped by famed fashion photog <strong>Peter Lindbergh</strong>. This clip shows the on-set happenings at the magazine shoot. And make sure to keep your eyes peeled for the famous faces assembled in the “front row”—yup, that’s <strong>Marcia Gay Harden</strong> sitting near party photographer <strong>Patrick McMullan</strong>. Meanwhile, model <strong>Helena Christensen</strong>—<em>does that woman ever rest?!—</em>gets to play, as Mr. Lindbergh puts it, “the little bitchy fashion editor,” who looks at her watch impatiently while Mr. Jacobs does god-knows-what backstage. Hmmm…who could that be?<strong><em></em></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">“People get bored and wait too long,” explains Mr. Lindbergh of the spread’s concept. “Because the bad behavior fashion crowd, you know?” Perhaps surprisingly to some, Mr. Jacobs appears an extremely good sport in the video, gladly making fun of his own notoriously-tardy fashion shows. “This is a good way to kind of end it,” the fashion designer says. “Just have it documented as a spoof and be on to the next. I’m really amused by it. And fashion is such a circus, and shows are such a circus. I think for anybody who doesn’t know this—it’s insane what we all go through. So it makes good pictures.”</p>]]></description>

 <title>Chloë Sevigny Pretends to Have Drug Problems for Harper&#039;s Bazaar</title>

<p class="MsoNormal">There’s something undeniably alluring about <strong>Chloë Sevigny</strong>. The moment we met her in director <strong>Larry Clark</strong>’s <em>Kids</em>, her unique sense of style came wafting off the screen, securing her place in the fashion zeitgeist. Even now, on HBO’s <em>Big Love</em>, the 33-year-old actress manages to make polygamy attractive—perhaps it has something to do with those just-rolled-out-of-bed eyes. So cool her vibe and refreshing her style, it <em>almost</em> seems like she could do no wrong. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">During a recent photo shoot in Paris for <em>Harper’s Bazaar</em>, acclaimed fashion photographer <strong>Peter Lindbergh</strong> chose to give the Look Book spread a decidedly edgy theme—“They Tried to Make Me Go to Rehab.” While the <strong>Amy Winehouse</strong> shout-out is slightly amusing and Ms. Sevigny’s security in her sobriety is kind of refreshing, these pics make her look creepy. In this clip from the Parisian photo sesh, she offers her sense of Mr. Lindbergh’s work. “I love the way he shoots women; they’re always very strong and confident,” she says, adding: “There’s just something romantic and very feminine about his pictures.” <em>Really?</em></p>]]></description>
