ON THE COVER: Rachel Bilson
September 7, 2008
Rachel Bilson has launched a million fashion crushes with her unique but subtle sex-bomb style. This week in Page Six Magazine, Rachel reveals her love for Coco Chanel and Hayden Christensen and how shes making it easy for copycats to steal her look in her new role as a designer.
The 27-year-old former star of The O.C. is recognized for her eclectic sense of style, which has also landed her in the crosshairs of the fashion police: I think its cool to be on the worst-dressed list. If people arent accepting, thats OK. Bring it on, I dont care!
Her passion for fashion had led her to unveil a new clothing line, Edie Rose (named after her late grandmother), debuting on DKNY Jeans. She admits she cant sew, and came with some pictures, a couple pieces of my own clothes and some ideas in my head. Its simple with one pop of color, which is like me. Rachel credits her style to her mother, Janice, a spiritual adviser. Vintage is her love, she has a great eye, which I think Ive inherited from her.
Up next for Rachel is an abstract film collection of New York City stories due out next February titled New York, I Love You, in which she co-stars with current boyfriend Hayden Christensen. Im happy and thats all that matters. I have someone really great. Someone who can make me laughthats always what comes first. Its the best to be able to really, like, truly laugh with someone like theyre your best friend, you know?

Shes also serving as maid of honor at the wedding of The O.C. and Gossip Girl creator Josh Schwartz and her girlfriend, Jill.
As far as her ex-costar/ex-boyfriend Adam Brody? They say dont date your co-star, but thats who youre around. If youre in an office, and you see someone everyday and you click well, youll start dating. Its the same thing.
