As if we needed to be told that print isn’t dead, Buzfeed went ahead and made a list of the 35 best print publications around. Well, you won’t be surprised to hear that Wonderland was firmly on that list with the description, “the UK’s hippest pop-culture magazine”: we’ll take that. To celebrate, we thought it was a fitting time to give away some of our most sought-after past covers and posters. How will you get your hands on these? Easy – become a subscriber to our weekly newsletter and enter the chance to win, those who do will find out next Friday so time’s a-ticking!

This week we’re offering up some of our favourites from 2014/15, including:

‘Why You So Obsessed with Me? Issue’ – Summer 2014 

That unforgettable cover of a seductive Mariah Carey dressed in Agent Provocateur shot by Terry Richardson. Plus other desirables Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Brooke Candy, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Iggy Azalea, Petra Collins, Gregg Araki, Jacob Artist, Dominique Young Unique and Ella Henderson – bet you ran out of breath saying that didn’t you?

‘The Mean Girls Issue’ – Sept/ Oct 2014

Reowww – what a line-up of feisty females. Your ‘regulation hottie’ and face of this issue is tiara-wearing Barbara Palvin accompanied by the ultimate clique of playground princesses: Chelsea’s Lucy Watson, Muccia’s new muse Stacy Martin and film-star sensation Saoirse Ronan. We also caught up with the mean girl herself Lindsay Lohan as she took to the West End stage in David Mamet’s ‘Speed-The-Plow.’ All in celebration of 10 years since Tina Fey created Mean Girls – do you feel old now?

‘The Teen Dream Issue’ – Nov/ Dec 2014 

Our two cover stars, both available, are dreamy teen icons and interviewees Taylor Swift and Willow Smith, with stunning photo shoots by Thomas Whiteside. Taylor’s normal bubble gum ‘pop’ appearance is stripped back revealing some of that country-girl fresh-faced charm that we all fell for and simultaneously welcomes her as a modern pop star with sass. Willow Smith also shakes off her past ‘whipping hair’ days and stands as a young and well-informed Feminist who has grown up very quickly.

‘The Spring Fashion Issue’ – February/March 2015

Hailey Baldwin shows us what she’s made of; gracefully holding a range of power tools whilst her long blonde hair flows around her – and all whilst wearing six-inch heals. As well our cover girl, this issue hooks up with girl band of the moment Little Mix, the gorgeous actor Douglas Booth and talks to Kristen Stewart about reinventing herself as the queen of indie film accompanied by a poignant black and white shoot by Hedi Slimane.

Miley Cyrus’ latest video is pretty weird. If you haven’t seen “BB Talk” yet (where have you been hiding, under a tasteful music rock?), it basically involves Miley dressing up as a semi-sexualised – and maybe-problematic-maybe-not – baby as she does her off-the-rails pop star thing. In other words, it’s fairly wild and fairly strange. But as weird as it might be, it’s not the freakiest thing Miley has ever done. Because, as well all know, Miley’s done a lot of crazy shit since her post-Disney makeover. So, to celebrate what will surely be another YouTube-breaking anthem, we’re getting all retrospective and recapping the NSFW- goddess’ wildest times in our favourite way: a list.

Blazing a joint at the 2013 MTV European Music Awards

A classic slice of early bad-girl-era Miley, this was the moment she lit a homemade “cigarette” up in Amsterdam: we’ve all been there, but where we might have been in a dingy youth hostel, she was on stage at the MTV Awards – that’s just how Miley rolls.

2013 VMA performance with Robin Thicke 

Robin Thicke had a great year in 2013: he single-handedly gave think-piece writers everywhere all the material they would ever need with his super-offensive “Blurred Lines”. It’s only Dapper Laughs who has since managed to attract more, immensely-justifiable, feminist scorn. Either way, the storm of rape-culture controversy certainly wasn’t enough to stop Miley getting down and dirty on stage with Thicke – she even grabbed his crotch for good measure.

“Wrecking Ball”

Although it seems tame in comparison to the disturbing “BB Talk” visuals, this was one of Miley’s nude breakthrough (no pun intended) moments and so is more than deserving of a space on our list: hammer-licking and all.

The Katy Perry Kiss

This is an iconic frienemies from Miley; Katy went in for a quick friendly kiss, Miley tired to get saucy. The result? Perry pulled away and delivered this classic put-down: “God knows where that tongue has been!” Enough said, really.

Twerking

Not so much a moment, more of a lifestyle choice. With cries of “cultural appropriation!” from some corners of the web, Miley decided to make this Dancehall staple part of her permanent dance repertoire – and, in the process, encouraged legions of YouTubers to do the same. Thanks, Miley.

2015 Terry Richardson Shoot 

Now, Wonderland might not be a family magazine, but even we would think twice about posting some of these. Bringing new meaning to NSFW, this shoot is trademark Richardson (pretty creepy) and trademark Miley (pretty naked). The real question is, where could she go from here?

“BB Talk”

Oh. That answers our question. Yep, I know we said at the beginning that this video isn’t the weirdest thing Miley has ever done but, on reflection, it probably is. She’s the overgrown baby with a bad attitude that you’ll just love to hate! Freaky, then funny, before being just plain bizarre, this is Miley’s latest effort and the video hoping to finally distract us from watching “Hotline Bling”. Here’s to many more Miley!

As Mariah Carey gets better with age, with every album, we look back at some of her whimsical wisdom, lyrical life lessons and bask in the light of her vocal aerobics. Move aside pop princesses, its all about Queen Mariah today.

Dreamlover

In one of Mariah Carey’s first and biggest hits she empowers her fellow women, she don’t need no man, but if she happened to have one, they would be loyal like a new born puppy. Frolicking in the sunny field, it looks whimsical but Mariah as always means business:

“I don’t want another pretender
To disillusion me one more time
Whispering words of forever
Playing with my mind.”

Honey

“Honey” saw Mariah Carey’s transformation from soul sister into a sensual R&B sensation. With a video set out like a Hollywood blockbuster and her cameo as a super secret sexy agent spy – very Charlie’s Angels with her sassy comebacks and LBD, is likely to have inspired her acting venture in Glitter (2001). Carey spouts some sweet as honey rhyming couplets to enrapture any potential partner:

“Oh baby I’ve got a dependency
Always strung out for another taste of your honey
It’s like honey when it washes over me
You know sugar never ever was so sweet
And I’m dying for ya, crying for ya, I adore ya.”

Touch My Body

By 2009 when “Touch My Body”, Mariah Carey had already been sat on the throne of super stardom for nearly a decade but as always, she’s never taken it too seriously. In “Touch My Body”, she enacts the dreamy fantasies of doting boys the world around in jovial dress up and killer curves. Carey also shares some age old wisdom:

“If there’s a camera up in here
Then I’d best not catch this flick
On YouTube. 
‘Cause if you run your mouth and brag
About this secret rendezvous
I will hunt you down.”

We Belong Together

With approximately 124,238,412 hits on Youtube, “We Belong Together” is one of Mariah’s greatest hits – and that’s saying something! Alongside dreamy Prison Break actor Wentworth Miller, she sings a longing song to love lost. Whether this song helped you through the tears or encourage a flood, Mariah empowered singletons:

“Who else am I gon’ lean on
When times get rough
Who’s gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who’s gonna take your place
There ain’t nobody better.”

Always Be My Baby

This absolute classic is her most listened to track on Spotify and has just been reenacted by the Queen herself and James Cordon. 20 years on her sentiments for ever lasting love are just as true. Mariah teaches us that it is okay to love:

“Time can’t erase a feeling this strong
No way you’re never gonna shake me
Ooh darling ’cause you’ll always be my baby.”

It’s Like That 

Just like Shakespeare, Mariah crafts her own words and phrases that will go down in history. Next time you’re out on the dance floor, pull out these slang-tastic lyrics and your wind machine to turn all those chickens to ash while your hot tamale dance moves will confirm your status as lotion.

“I came to have a party
Open up the Bacardi
Feeling so hot tamale.

You like this and you know it
Caution, it’s so explosive
Them chickens is ash and I’m lotion.”

All I Want For Christmas Is You

We don’t need the lyrics for this one, everybody knows the words. Even your Dad will belt this one out on Christmas day. Would there be anything better than Christmas with Mariah? We don’t think so. But listening to this on repeat from November onwards is a close second.

When Kiersey Clemons was 15 years old, she landed her first main part – in the school production of Grease. “I played Sandy,” she explains. “But I actually wanted to be Rizzo.” Clemons is a cherubic beauty. She has the sort of face that’s made to play Sandy; or the good girl in a hip-hop video (check her out in the promo film for Trey Songz’ banger, “SmartPhones”, where she plays the prime steak while he laments going out for hamburgers). But in Dope, out in late September, she’s a lesbian punk who dresses like Tyler, the Creator and “likes white-boy shit”. This is her first major film role alongside the likes of A$AP Rocky and Zoe Kravitz, and it is decidedly “Rizzo”.

The 21-year-old was born in Florida – “not anywhere like Miami,” she explains. She’d always
been creative – writing poems and songs – and Clemons knew that she wanted to act. A couple of musicals in and she was ready to pursue a career on the silver screen: “When I was 16 I found an agency, and I made my mum take me to them so that I could finally act”.

She speaks with refreshing warmth about her time working on Disney Channel shows like Shake It Up and Austin & Ally. “I think that it was a cool transition to start out in that,” she observes. “I feel like my work has grown with me. I never feel like what I’m doing isn’t right or appropriate at the time that I’m doing it.” It perhaps helps that she felt no pressure to do a Terry Richardson shoot or a stint in rehab to show the world that she’s now a fully-fledged grown-up. Her coming-of-age came in the form of a small but impactful part in the game-changing Amazon Prime series, Transparent.

Directed by Six Feet Under’s Jill Soloway and starring Jeffrey Tambor as a retired college professor and father of three who’s decided in his twilight years to become a woman, it’s clear the show was a seminal moment for her. The show came out in a pre-Caitlyn Jenner USA and was a proud, strutting statement for the transgender community. In it Clemons plays Bianca, the stepdaughter of Tambor’s daughter’s lesbian lover.

Is it a coincidence, I ask, that Clemons (who is straight) keeps finding herself in roles that are on a gender-bending tip? “I assume that getting the roles happened to be part of my purpose,” she explains. “It’s kept following me, so I’m not gonna ignore it. I’ve just kind of snuck myself into that community.” This high-minded attitude towards the responsibility that comes with her art recurs frequently during our conversation. “It’s really cool when, through your work, you’re able to make a statement,” she enthuses. And Clemons has a lot of statements to make.

“I got offered a lot of stuff after Dope that was unintentionally sexist or racist,” she says. The cosy world of Disney gave her a sheltered view of Hollywood opportunities (“They need all the ethnicity they can get!”). Now, she’s sick of being offered the part of best friend, roomy or female lead in a film packed with males. She wants the studios to create more progressive roles and she’s not afraid to turn down opportunities to make that happen. “I’m never gonna bite the hand that feeds me,” she says. “But if you’re feeding me poison, that’s when I’m gonna be like ‘bitch, hold up.’”

So what sort of parts is she after? “I really love what Brittany Murphy did,” she remarks. “She was so good at playing those girls who are charming no matter how fucked up they are.” She sees a future full of nuanced characters: irrespective of gender, colour or sexuality, they are complex. “We need to love more fucked up people,” is her rallying cry. We need to love more Rizzos.

The post Picture This: Chloë Sevigny appeared first on Wonderland.

Our favourite it girl of the 90s, Chloë Sevigny turns forty today. If that doesn’t make you feel old, we really don’t know what will. From early beginnings as a trend setter in New York, to the international actress and superstar that she is today, she sums up edgy American cool in one blonde bite-size package. Not just a pretty face, Chloë has starred in some of the best films of the 90s and 2000s. Highlights include playing a secretary infatuated with her serial killer boss in American Psycho and a part alongside Macauley Culkin in the era defining Party Monster, telling the story of club-kid-slash-murderer Michael Alig in 90s New York. Both were chic, pop-culturally significant roles that shan’t easily be forgotten. Aside from this, Chloë has been on more magazine covers than we can count, and has done her fair share of television cameos; remember her playing that lesbian interior designer in Will and Grace? More recently you might have seen her as a guest judge on RuPaul’s Drag Race.

To celebrate another it-girl turning another year older, we’ve gathered our favourite of her moments for you to enjoy. Happy birthday Chloë Sevigny, we’re sure the party will be pretty awesome.

THAT TIME SHE DRESSED UP AS TERRY RICHARDSON

Whatever you think of the somewhat infamous photographer, you can’t deny that this photo of Chloë and the man himself is pretty epic. It makes a change from the usual semi naked girls prancing around at any rate.

BACK IN THE DAY

Way back in July 2000, here she is on the cover of The Face, before it sadly disappeared from the newsstands.

FOREVER A COVER GIRL 

More recently, Chloë was on 2008 on the cover of British Elle. Marking the beginning of fashion’s move away from the bohemia and sexiness of the mid-00’s, this cover sees her riding the wave of cool into a new decade (if you ignore those shoes…)

AMERICAN HORROR STORY

In 2012 she starred in American Horror Story: Asylum, playing a nymphomaniac who’s husband put her in an institution for liking sex too much.

STYLE ICON, THEN

Messily cropped hair, knit bikini top and a denim jacket? Yes please.

STYLE ICON, NOW

Looking great in a blush coloured co-ord at the premiere of The Bling Ring. Very modern New York woman, even when she’s in L.A.

OPENING CEREMONY COLLAB

We loved her collaboration with Opening Ceremony, which made sense on every level. Great stuff.
