IN THE SNOOD...

For many Jews, a snood is a sign of a married woman's affiliation with an Orthodoxy that's traditional enough to demand that married women cover their hair in public, and modern enough to not insist on a wig. Now, Gawker reports that Chloe Sevigny is wearing one:

on saturday i saw chloe sevigny browsing the non-fiction section in the union square barnes and noble. she was surprisingly subdued in white overall shorts and a white tank. of course it wouldn't be chloe without something bizarre, she had on a white crocheted snood. i was in a rush, couldn't see what she was buying.

Since she was photographed shopping on a Saturday, my guess is that this does NOT mean that Chloe's gone the way of Madonna in embracing Jewish religious paraphernalia.
