Chloë Sevigny has directed her first ever film, ‘Kitty’, for which a trailer has just been released via her Instagram account.

The film is due for release across the upcoming film festival circuit this year, and tells the mystical story of a girl transforming into a cat.

About the film, she says: “I wanted to do kind of a throwback to kind of those 80s films where they had an element of practical effects and makeup and stuff. I thought it was so visual and cinematic and so delicate I could make a really beautiful whisper of a film.”

Halsey has teamed up American leather-boot company, The Frye Company, as one of the faces of their new ‘Modern Icon’ collection, alongside Dylan Penn and others.

The SPCA’s Auckland Canine Department is currently full to capacity with puppies and dogs needing new loving owners - as they are struggling to find room to house the 35 dogs they’re currently looking after.

As well as plenty of puppies available, there are also a number of adult dogs needing adoption - which often get overlooked, but are just as deserving of a home.

If you, or anyone you know has been considering a puppy or a dog, now is the time to do it, as the influx is making it harder for the SPCA to continue their great work with animal welfare.
