She also reflects on her multiple style eras, her obsession with Paloma Elsesser’s closet, and why she’ll never be intimidated by her height.

Petra Collins has spent the last decade shaping the visual language of fashion, art, and internet culture. In this episode of ‘The Good Buy,’ the photographer, filmmaker, model, and cultural tastemaker sits down with Harper’s BAZAAR to talk about the subversive style influences that shaped her world— from Liberty-print Dr. Martens and American Apparel disco pants to horror movie heroines and the infamous Blythe dolls. Watch as Petra reflects on the early days of Rookie Mag, shares stories behind her iconic 2019 Met Gala look (hint: it involves Cher), and reveals her vintage 1950s engagement ring for the very first time. She also reflects on her expansive vintage collection, the evolution of her personal style, and her new photography book, ’Star.’

Chloë Sevigny has long been fashion’s ultimate insider.

Watch as our May cover star shares the story behind her first-ever designer purchase (Margiela Tabis, of course), reveals the origin of her now-famous closet sale, and talks all things fashion in film. She also reflects on her red carpet evolution—from dressing herself in the early days to now collaborating with stylist Haley Wollens— as well as her extensive archive, her take on stunt dressing on the red carpet, and her obsession with vintage Norma Kamali, and more.

Nicole Richie has always done fashion her own way. In this episode of ‘The Good Buy,’ the designer, actress, and pop culture icon sits down with Harper’s BAZAAR to break down her signature “full witch” style. Watch as the House of Harlow founder talks about her love of vintage shopping (especially when it requires latex gloves), why accessories are the ultimate outfit-maker, and how Disney villains became some of her biggest style inspirations. She also reflects on her Y2K-era fashion legacy, the Vera Wang figure skating costume that changed her life, and growing up on tour with her father, Lionel Richie. Whether she’s sporting custom YSL on a red carpet, styling a Target tank top around L.A., or casually wearing a Mardi Gras-style headpiece through airport security, Nicole is proof that great style is all about instinct, individuality, and a little bit of chaos.

Benito Skinner loves fashion almost as much as he loves Mary Beth Barone.

Watch here as the ‘Overcompensating’ star shares his obsession with Dario Vitale’s Versace, reflects on style inspirations like Robin Williams and A$AP Rocky, and reveals his lore as a “greeter” at Abercrombie & Fitch. Whether he's on-screen or off, Benito proves that real fashion isn’t just about dressing well, but the joy, playfulness, and confidence that comes from presenting as your truest self.
