Movie 'Selma' Director Ava DuVernay - Stunning shot! Dress by Calvin Klein
On the process of creating the Oscar-winning Selma: "It was important to me when I took over the film and rewrote the script that there were those silences and spaces where these icons are being people."
Comedian Amy Schemer - Calvin Klein shirt, black satin bra by Harno (huge fan of Hanro! a splurge but super comfy)
On filming Girls: "I played a character not unlike the kind of character I often play on my show, like, a girl who's a little bit trashy but thinks she's the ultimate class act."
50 Shades Actress Dakota Johnson - Calvin Klein jacket
On adapting the role of Anastasia in Fifty Shades: "I needed Anastasia to be funny. If you can't laugh during a movie like that, you're f--ked. Literally. You need to have something that everyone can relate to."
Actress Salma Hayek's sexy cover in a strapless dress by Stella McCartney
On the toughness needed to be a mother: "Oliver Stone said, 'I know you're tough, but now you're a mother. Do you think you can be that tough?' I said, 'Oh, my God—motherhood just makes you tougher.'"
Actress Kate Winslet in Victoria Beckham
On the relentless schedule of Titanic: "We all got pretty exhausted—but the stunt people seemed to have an impossible supply of energy. And for the dancing scenes, the dressing rooms were like a cabaret!"
Actress ALICIA VIKANDER in letter pants by Louis Vuitton
Director Joe Wright, the director of Pride & Prejudice and Anna Karenina on Vikander:
She's incredibly determined and hardworking, and yet, from up above, it all looks simple and elegant and easy."
Actress CAREY MULLIGAN in Valentino
On filming her newest film, Suffragette: "It was a really buzzy, fun, exciting set to be on, a lot of women doing stuff that we don't ordinarily get to do. I've never run away from a bomb exploding before. Or been thrown in prison."
Actress Mia Farrow stuns in a Gucci jacket
On taking unexpected, sometimes even undesired roles, like the leading role in Gloria:
"John [Cassavetes] wrote this part for a major star, who turned it down. She felt it wasn't glamorous enough. I said, 'I want it, and I don't care if you pay me anything.'"
