Um, hello, je téléphone á la police? I’m ringing to report a crime. Yes, it’s Chloë Sevigny…she served too hard and ate too much. Yes, thank you, please come and collect her from the streets of New York right away.

It’s true: the actress was spotted outside a screening for her sci-fi comedy Magic Farm, wearing a cropped red collared jacket, a silky scarf dress, and bright red peep-toe heels, all tied together with some tiny gold hoop earrings. If you zoom in on the scarf portion of the dress, it actually reads “New York City” alongside a chunky chain detail. Even Sevigny knows she ate with this look. Ignore the TikTok influencers, this is how you actually do the Sandwich Method, although I’m sure Sevigny would never be caught using such a phrase.

Mostly though, it’s the patent, strapless peep-toe heels that really clinch the outfit. The 50-year-old’s choice of footwear comes amid fashion’s renewed interest in baring some toe (see: Fendi, Louis Vuitton, and Prada’s fall 2025 collections, with Acne Studios even bringing in some floral peep-toe boots for spring 2025). But while the likes of Balenciaga are taking toe mania to the extreme–we are inches from showing up to the club totally barefoot–Sevigny opted for a mere whisper of a toe. They’re called peep-toe heels for a reason.

Essentially, Sevigny just gave peep-toe heels the It-girl seal of approval–and for her, that means classic and almost Jessica Rabbit-ish, rather than any of the freakier, toe-baring iterations. “I’ve loved fashion since I was a little girl and always had fun with it,” she told British Vogue earlier this year. “My parents instilled a love of classic pieces in me, and I think even if you have a really wacky outfit, a single classic piece can ground it.”
